Excerpt from The Story of Sacred Song
In tracing the story of Sacred Song from the earliest times to the present day, we have a deeply interesting and highly important subject for our consideration.
It is deeply interesting, for a knowledge of the circumstances under which many of our favourite hymns have been composed cannot fail to increase their charm, and lead to a better understanding as well as a keener appreciation of them. Even in cases where we do not know the exact circumstances under which they were written, a knowledge of the persons who composed them, and of the period in which they first saw the light, must produce a similar effect.
It is highly important, for hymns form an essential feature in public worship; and are a great help, not only to devotion, but to the teaching of doctrine. The best hymns form a kind of commentary upon the Bible, for they are nothing but Gospel truth set forth in rhyme, and may be said to hold the Scriptures in solution.
