Hymns of the Church

Indisputably invaluable and deeply devotional, Hymns of the Church Collection will irrevocably impact your life. Universally appealing to readers of all ages and of all times, Hymns are a means of raising, quickening or enlivening the spirit of devotion, confirming faith, reviving hope, kindling and increasing love to God and man. They convey convictions, stir the affections, and strengthen moral resolve. Their eloquence and expression will propel your thoughts toward developing a purer and more pristine picture of praise to the Almighty!

The purity, strength, and the elegance of the English language coupled with simplicity and plainness, clarifies the relationship between the language of the doxology of worship and praise of God and the substance of theological reflection. Priceless to anyone interested in church history or theology! Having sustained the church for centuries, Hymns will continue to richly bless and enrich you. Lose yourself in their timeless and ageless beauty.

"The hymns are interesting both on their intrinsic merits and as representing the religious thought and emotion."
— Aberdeen Free Press
