Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Elim: Or Hymns of Holy Refreshment
It would be almost impossible to overrate the value of really good hymns for private as well as public use. Next to the Bible itself, hymns have done more to in?u ence our views and mould our theology than any other instrumentality whatever. There is a power in hymns which never dies. Easily learned in the days of child hood and of youth; often repeated; seldom, if ever, for gotten, they abide with us, a most precious heritage, amid all the changes of our earthly life. They form a fitting and most welcome expression for every kind of deep re ligious feeling: they are with us to speak of Faith and Hope in hours of trial and sorrow; with us, to animate to all earnest Christian effort; with us, as the rich Conso lation of individual hearts, and as one common bond of Fellowship between the living members of Christ's mys tical body.
