Excerpt from Songs of Praise With Tunes: Compiled and Edited Songs OF praise has been carefully prepared with one aim in view - to furnish a book of sacred song adapted to the needs of Churches and Christian Associations in social worship. Many of its hymns are also in the larger collection, the Carmina Sanctorum, and in such cases the same tunes will be found, in almost every instance, at the same opening. Many hymns, however, have been added, especially such as are adapted to seasons of religious interest, and such as emphasize Christian aspirations and the activities of the Christian life. The musical adaptations also have been care fully studied to meet the requirements of social worship. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
