Book Reviews of The Complete Book of Hymns (Complete Book)
Book Review: Terrific buy!
Summary: 5 Stars
This useful book gives a short history of most popular hymns that you will encounter in the Protestant churches. The music in not included, but all the words to all the verses are there. It has proven valuable when giving a brief history before singing a hymn. The participants are much more appreciative of the hymn after hearing a story about how it was written.
Most of the histories given are about the author of the words and not about the composers of the hymns.
