Synopsis
Excerpt from The Story of the Hymns: Or Hymns That Have a History; An Account of the Origin of Hymns of Personal Religious Experience Of these hymns, only the fittest survive, and the most help ful stand the test of time. It usually happens that the most painstaking and elaborate productions Of the Christian' lyrist are the first to perish, while some minor expression of sincere religious feeling is the surest' to live, and take its place among the recognized lyrics Of the church.

Of the origin of all hymns in common use, but only of such as are the result of some peculiar circumstance or special religious experience. The hymns that the church best loves, and most carefully preserves, are, for the most part, the fruit of eventful lives, luminous religious experiences, severe discipline, or unusual sorrow. It is the writer's object to associate such hymns with the peculiar circumstances that inspired them, and to explain the personal and local allusions that enter largely into their composition. The volume might properly have been called The Origin of Hymns of Religious Experience. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    The first item was not right. The seller made it right. New item received in great condition. Thank you for the great communication and customer service. It looked exactly like the description and I'm pleased with the value of it. Thanks for producing a quality product that is almost impossible to find now. Most of all, thanks for making it right when it was wrong.
