Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIS beautiful volume, one of the most artistic products of this well-known press, and coming to our hand at the time when there is a noteworthy revival of interest in the hymns of the Church and of its entire ritual, should be read and pondered for three things: First, it is a wonderfully helpful volume for devotional reading; it brings and holds the mind of its reader within the sweep of the spiritual forces that build Christlikeness. Secondly, the book gives interestingly the facts, the incidents that should be known about the twelve greatest hymns of the Church. Thirdly, this series of twelve sermon-lectures is a model for the study of anyone who contemplates using the great hymns or any other spiritual songs, in lifting the spiritual life of the people who worship God in our churches. A little light on the origin, history, and moral awakening caused by the singing of the songs would help to make them more powerful still in lifting on wings of melody the thoughts of our people to things divine. Some of the hymns presented are: "Jesus, Lover of My Soul," "Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus," "Some Day the Silver Cord Will Break," "God Moves in a Mysterious Way," "Nearer, My God, to Thee," "Majestic Sweetness Sits Enthroned Upon the Saviour's Brow," "Faith of Our Fathers, Living Still," "Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty," "Rock of Ages," "Lead, Kindly Light, Amid the Encircling Gloom," "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name." And on every one a discourse of facts, of incidents, of messages of winsomeness and power follows. Spiritual results attended the delivery of these messages, and now the printed pages seem to breathe. A hallowed influence pervades the book and its readers. Here are samples of its paragraphs: In the message based upon "Jesus, Lover of My Soul," the author tells of a sinful, conscience-stricken man who came to him for help, and then adds, "I might have told him to turn over a new leaf, to forget the past, to stop wrongdoing, to try to do right, to love the beautiful, not to believe that there was anything called 'sin' in the world, to be saved 'by character.' There are many in these modern days who would have thus advised him. But following such advice would not make this man free and give him a pure heart and a clear conscience. So I directed him to flee straight to the arms of Jesus, the Saviour." In discussing Fanny Crosby's hymn, "Some Day the Silver Cord Will Break," we find the following: "When the silver cord is broken, when the earthly house fails, when the frail tent collapses, when the perishable tabernacle crumbles into fragments, when the machine wears out, when the harp is hushed into silence, when the boat has crossed life's river, when the door of the prison cell is thrown open, when the organist pushes in the stops and locks the instrument, then the freed spirit, the real self, the immortal soul takes the wings of the morning and flies in triumph to the bosom of the waiting Christ.... -Methodist Review, Volume 99 [1917]

This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great Hymns of the Middle Ages Was within them, it was quite as certainly a reality toward which they strove diligently, for which they longed greatly, and in which they implicitly believed. This may explain the essentially impersonal atti tude even in the later, strongly emotional poetry of which The Jubilee Rhythm of Bernard of Clairvaux is an example. Even in this the personal element is quite lost in the description of the visions vouchsafed to the blessed. It is a quality seem ingly at variance with adher ence to a system in which the saving of one's own soul is thefirst care, yet no analysis of self turns these writers from their celestial themes. There is no place in their minds for ih dividual moods, such as color some modern devotional verse and make religion appear a salve for the disappointed rather than an inspiration for the hero. The thoughts of the mediaeval hymn-writers were fixed on the facts of their belief and on the theories of their theology, and life itself was in those days too precari ous to leave room for fine questionings as to its lesser incidents of pleasure or of pain.

Book Synopsis Hymns for Schools and Colleges (Classic Reprint) by : Markham W. Stackpole
Download or read book Hymns for Schools and Colleges (Classic Reprint) written by Markham W. Stackpole and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hymns for Schools and Colleges The everyday needs of school and college congregations have prompted the making of this hymn book and have determined its character, arrange ment, and size. The editors have searched critically through many modern hymnals for those hymns that can be sung with sincerity and heartiness by young men of to-day. They have sought for tunes having not only musical merit but also moderate range, easy intervals, and simple movement. Many tunes kave 566 transposed to lower keys. The melody rarely rises above Eb. Unison Singing is thus made easier and will be found desirable for general use. The bass, however, has been kept, wherever possible, above lower F. About eighty of the selections, with their accepted tune settings, are al ready widely familiar as standard hymns of the church. With many other hymns, various settings are in use. Wherever it has been necessary for the editors to choose a tune setting, they have carefully considered precedent, effectiveness for the whole hymn, and musical accents. In many instances a second tune is printed or referred to, and, in other cases, the page arrange ment affords a choice. Tunes used more than once have, as a rule, been set with kindred hymns. -all of the tunes have been taken from standard modern books and fully two thirds of them are well known. -the editors have aimed for variety in words and music and for a, proper proportion between the old and the new. The general grouping of the hymns has been suggested by experience. Within the larger groups a logical arrangement will be found. The best versions of both hymns and tunes have been sought by comparison of recent books. In many instances stanzas have been omitted. The editors have not made independent researches regarding versions or authorship. -for dates they have relied mostly upon the indexes of the new edition of The Pilgrim Hymnal. The hymnals from. Which this collection has largely been derived are named upon page v. To the editors of these books the present compilers acknowledge their deep indebtedness.
