Book Description
Excerpt from Sparkling Jewels for Sunday School Concerts: Containing Twelve Complete Exercise, With Music, and Additional Poems After several years' experience as Superintendent of Sabbath Schools, I am fully persuaded that there is a natural and reasonable demand, in schools gen erally, for the presentation of religious truth in a variety of forms, to attract the attention and lead souls to a higher life. This is because a superior type of civilization, a higher degree of intellectual and spiritual culture exists now than hitherto; and still the watchword of humanity is Onward and Upward. Therefore, Bible truths, bearing upon a particular subject, enforced by a Wide range of scrip ture passages, and made Joyful by the spirit of poetry and song, are well calculated to Inspire a love of Truth, leading to a closer study of the Scriptures 5 resulting in a more thorough knowledge of God, and of our relations and duties to him and to each other 3 unfolding a richer and purer love for our Father in heaven, and for his children here. With this View, the' present volume is especially prepared and respectfully submitted With the hope and prayer that it may bea power for good, under the guidance of the Spirit, leading many up the Shining way to those pearly gates, Where the ransomed of the Lord shall enter into the Celestial City With songs and everlasting.
