Christian Songs and Hymns

656 pages

From the publishers…

In recent years, brethren have voiced concern that our communities are trending away from deeply reverent hymns that teach and foster self-denial and humility, toward songs and tunes where emphasis is on self, rather than serving Christ. The publisher’s desire with this book was to compile a hymnal comprised of sound doctrine and befitting God’s people, though not everyone may agree exactly which songs are acceptable. The compiling committee endeavored to find the right balance: not too narrow minded and screening out too many songs, nor too liberal and including chaff. This book contains a fair number of newer songs of authors from our old order and conservative communities.

Printed in hardcover with shaped notes. Contains 643 songs (including a few German songs), with several male chorus arrangements in the back.
