Book Description
Excerpt from Carols, Hymns, and Songs In 7esu, Fount of Pleasure, there is very little borrowed, though the ideas are substantially the same. Similar remarks might be made of several others. Some of them, however, have no connection with any German original. But in each case the words have been written expressly for that one particular mel ody, and each verse has been fitted to that melody while it was in the act of composition. The only way to test a Hymn, is, not merely to read it silently, or even aloud, but to sing it, over and over again, to its own tune. There is nothing in this little book that has not been abundantly subjected to this test before being offered to the public. The fact, that in part of my work I have written words for other people's music, in another part have written music for other people's words, while in the rest I furnish both words and music myself, is some evidence that I have bestowed equal care and labor upon bot/z the things which are essential to good Hymnody. The reason why we have so much of unsatisfactory material thrust upon the Church, is that, for the most part, the writers of the words have known little about music, and the writers of music have had little taste or power in the poetic field, and therefore there was no felt organic connection betwixt the two. In the arrangement of yesu, Fount of Pleasure, I have ventured to harmonize it in the Dorian mode, instead of the usual D minor, which hardly seems to suit the character of the words as well.

Excerpt from Gems of Christmas Song: A Collection of Old Christmas Carols and Hymns for the Use Year After Year in the Home and at Christmas Festivals It contains nothing new and nothing that has not the real Christmas tone. The best Christmas hymns are scattered through so many different books with all other kinds of sacred songs that in order to sing'a dozen such hymns it has been necessary heretofore to use perhaps half as many different books. It is to obviate this difficulty that this little book has been compiled. So far as it has been possible to ascertain no such collection has ever before been published to sell at a price so triļ¬‚ing. If the book proves to be of service to choir directors, Sunday School superintendents or any who love the thrill Of the real Christmas Song.

Excerpt from The Carol: A Book of Religious Songs for the Sunday School and the Home With a proper distribution of the parts, for nothing is so destructive alike to chil dren's voices and to a nobler rendering of sacred music as the present custom of indiscriminate and noisy unison singing. In any case it is hoped that Sunday school superintendents and choristers will strenuously insist upon it that at least one anthem, choral, chant or hymn be sung at every service, in addition to the more familiar and easy songs.
