Dive into the world of hymnody with this fascinating 1898 volume, which explores the rich tapestry of church hymns through a comprehensive survey of 107 hymn-books. Discover the thirty-two most popular hymns, ranked for your enjoyment. In this recording, the texts are recited rather than sung, accompanied by insightful notes that provide context and depth to each hymn. Additionally, youll find two thought-provoking essays that delve into the significance and standards of hymn writing. Compiled by the esteemed American Presbyterian minister, William James Benson (1855-1930), who dedicated his life to the preservation and promotion of sacred music, this collection is a true treasure for anyone interested in the spiritual and historical impact of hymns. - Summary by David Wales
