Description
|
|
|
|
Embedded in secular culture as well as in Christian practice, hymns remain a source of comfort and joy at weddings, funerals, religious festivals, and other noteworthy occasions in our lives. This handsome little volume, bound in red linen with ink and foil stampings, collects the words of 67 favorite hymns and carols, from "Amazing Grace" and "Onward Christian Soldiers" to "Good King Wenceslas" and "Silent Night," each with a brief, knowledgeable (and sometimes opinionated) introduction from Rupert Christiansen. The book concludes with an intriguing miscellany, including such entries as "Hymns sung at celebrity funerals."
