Hntbersttg ^ress: John Wilson and Son, Cambridge, U.S.A. IS AFFECTIONATELY INSCRIBED TO THE REV. CHARLES CUTHBERT HALL, D.D. WHOSE INTELLIGENT AND EARNEST EFFORT HAS DONE SO MUCH FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF CHURCH MUSIC, AND WHOSE PERSONAL INFLUENCE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A SOURCE OF INSPIRATION TO THE EDITORS. Editors' Preface 'nr^HE Compilers of this Hymnal have been guided entirely by a desire to lead •^ young people to a fuller appreciation of the beauty and helpfulness of the best Hymns of the Church. A tune capable of perfectly expressing a particular hymn can hardly be written as a piece of music merely; it is the result of an inspiration arising out of a sympa- thetic understanding of the meaning and spirit of the hymn. The hymn is really what is sung, and therefore should never be belittled by association with a tune below it in dignity, or inadequate to express its sentiment. Thus the first requisite of a Hymnal is a worthy selection of hymns ; and the second, a gathering of genuinely musical tunes, as far as possible composed for the hymns to which they are set. In a Hymnal intended especially for the use of young people, the brightness and happiness of youth should find full expression ; hence, from a rich and endless store, the Editors have here selected only those hymns and tunes which they know, from personal experience, to be thoroughly singable, enjoyable, inspiring, and worthy to be cherished in the hearts and memories of children. Especial care has been exercised in the selection of hymns for Little Children. V Editors' Preface It is hoped that this collection will not only find its way into many schools, but also may be sung and loved in many homes. The Editors desire to express their grateful appreciation to the many authors and composers here represented, but especially to THE OUTLOOK Co. for the use of the tunes "Adoration" and "Armstrong," and the hymn " O Thou Who art Inspinng;" to Mr George Edward Stubbs for the use of the tune "Asaph;" to Mrs. F. G. ILSLEY for the use of the tunes " Dania " and "Ilsley; " to Mr. CHARLES VINCENT for the use of "A Christmas Carol; " to Professor S. Lasar for the use of the tune " Lasar; " to Mr. Charles H. Morse for the use of the tune " Stowe; " and to Mr. JOHN H. GOWER for the use of the tune " Meditation." The kindness of Messrs. E. P. BUTTON and Co. in permitting the use of Bishop Brooks' Carol, " O Little Town of Bethlehem," is thoroughly appreciated. New York City, September, 1895. VI Publishers' Note THIS book may not appeal to those who wish to buy a new singing-book every year. It does not contain, as so many do, a very large proportion of pleasant jingle, but is chiefly made up of what the best musicians would recognize as " good music. " Pleasing melody, with simple and scholarly harmony, appropriately expressive of the sentiment of the hymn, has been the leading principle of com- pilation as to tunes; while the hymns are standard favorites. Hymns and tunes for the little children, and stirring, interesting, " self-singing " processionals, are fully represented; and yet the bulk of the book is addressed to arouse and express the best aims of the elder youth: reverence, worship, love of the divine, go hand in hand with the spring of youth, joy, and happiness. Compiled by men who have had extended experience as organists, church choir- masters, and musical trainers of children, — criticised and revised by the head-masters of several of the most famous private and public schools, and the musical directors of several Sunday-schools, —the book has been made, not upon theory, but along the lines of a practical demand. The Publishers are confident that it will be found to be, as to religious, literary, and musical elements, admirably adapted to regular use among young people. With judicious selection, it could also be made an admirable help in the regular social worship of the weekly prayer-meeting, and in the home. The paper, typography, and binding are made to correspond with the good sense and refined taste characterizing the contents of the book. vii Index of Subjects Hymn Morning 1-5 Evening • . . . 6-20 The Lord's Day 21-25 Opening of Service 26-29 Closing of Service 30-36 The Holy Scriptures 37-38 Praise to God 39-55 Praise to Christ 56-70 The Advent 71 The Nativity 72-88 The Life of Christ 89-90 The Passion gi The Resurrection 92-99 The Ascension loo-ioi The Love of Jesus 102-103 The Good Shepherd 104-106 Invitation 107-110 Consecration 111-120 The Holy Spirit 121-123 Hymn Love for Others 124-125 Service 126-130 Prayer 131-137 Communion mtith God 138-144 Holy Aspiration 145-150 Trust and Confidence 151-157 Gratitude 158-159 Christian Warfare 160-163 The Blessed Dead 164-165 Heaven 166-175 For Little Children 176-193 Missions 194-196 The Church Triumphant 197 Harvest-tide ... 198-201 National 202-203 Processionals 204-214 Offertory Sentences . 215-216 Chants 217-227 Hymnal The Rev.
