Book Description

Excerpt from Songs of Zion: Supplement to the Hymn-Book of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South IN compiling the Hymn-book of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, a number of hymns were excluded which would have been admitted, had there been room. Many of these are admirable productions, and are well adapted to do good serv ice for the Church. Having been repeatedly re quested to compile a volume of such pious effu sions, we have, with no small labor, prepared such a collection. It is hoped it may not be considered unworthy of the rank assigned it, as a Supplement to our Connectional Hymn-book, which has been pronounced, by competent judges, superior to any compilation extant. As that work has a sufficient fullness and variety, especially for all occasions of public worship, it must not be superseded by the present volume, which is assigned a subordinate rank. Of course, none of the hymns of the former volume are to be found in this. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
