Description

Church Hymnary (4th Edition) Melody And Words (Music Book)

The first new edition of the popular Church Hymnary for over thirty years, and edited by some of the

best-known names in Christian music, this long awaited publication contains over 750 hymns and 100

psalms. Approximately a quarter of the new selection is made up of new items written since the third

edition was published in 1973, not least from lona which has made such a distinctive contribution to

modern worship music. Many more entries have been introduced from around the world, primarily the

USA and New Zealand, but also translations and adaptations of little known material from such

countries as Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, Japan and Zimbabwe. These complement the traditional

and contemporary hymns and tunes from established authors and composers. The Church of

Scotland has 600,000 members, with a further 100,000 young people and adults taking part in a range

of church-based activities. For a full contents listing, please contact our Norwich office.

translations and adaptations of little known material from such countries as Hong Kong, Singapore,

Korea, Japan and Zimbabwe. These compliment the tradional and contemporary hymns and tunes

from Uk authors and composers.
