Excerpt from Hymns and Songs for the Sunday School Hymns and songs for the sunday school is not a classical edition; it is a practical edition, edited for the voice of medium range which predominates in the Sunday school. It is a musical text-book for the church school; it con tains the hymns which the child should study, sing and love. Those marked with an asterisk should be committed to memory. Most of the hymns in the collection are hymns of prayer and praise. A few subjective hymns have been included; these, though their theme is outside of the religious experience of the child, should still have a place in his religious training. Evening hymns have been included because no representative collection is complete without them. The German choral melodies have been arranged for the most part for unison singing. This is not only effective, but also practical, since the alto and tenor parts are often poorly represented in Sunday schools, and are some times entirely lacking. Upon the Sunday school superintendent depends in large measure the useful ness of the book. He should not limit himself to certain tunes or to certain familiar sections. Each hymn has been inserted for a special purpose, and every hymn is meant to be sung. In the Advent season the children should be taught the Advent hymns, and so on through the Church Year. In many cases it will be possible for the superintendent to impart interesting information about the history of a hymn. Schools should be assembled occasionally for practice. A musical drill, following the Sunday school lesson, is not contrary to the spirit of the Sunday school. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
