Book of Hymns for Public and Private Devotion (Classic Reprint)

The Sentences andS elections from theS criptures prefixed to the following collection of Hymns are intended for the introduction of public worship. The Selections are arranged to be read alternately by the minister and the people ;or they can be sung by the choir. A mong the Hymns will be found many which are not of the commonly recognized metres. Some of these are already set to music of their own. Others can readily be adapted by the choir-leader to the simple chants which are now generally found in our collections of sacred music. An asterisk prefixed to the authors name indicates that some change has been made in the hymn by the present compilers. Cambridge, July 1, 1846.
