Hymns And Carols Old And New Annotated For The Sunday School And Home PDF Download

Excerpt from The New Hosanna: A Book of Songs and Hymns for the Sunday-School and the Home HE new hosanna' is not intended as a substitute for the hosanna, but as a companion to that collection which has been in use for many years in the Sunday-schools of the new-church, and is still doing good service. For this reason the present book repeats nothing that is in the older book, but gives other songs and hymns for Christmas and Easter and other festivals, and for general use. It is hoped that the new collection may become a favorite with the children, and prove useful both in the Sunday-school and in the home. The book has been prepared by a committee of the American New Church Sunday-school Association with the kind assistance of many friends of the Sunday-schools. The committee have given much thought to the selection of strong, wholesome material, and have brought into use many tunes and hymns which have become standards in other churches, but have hitherto been kept out of new-church collections, mainly perhaps, for want of careful adaption of the words - a matter which has received earnest attention in the preparation of this book. Another feature which will be appreciated is the large number of tuneful songs written expressly for this collection by several well known composers who have generously contributed their compositions. We are indebted also to publishers and composers who have kindly given permission to use copyrighted songs.
