Revival Hymns (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Revival Hymns

With familiar hymns, uttered in sweet melodies, the most ignorant Christian finds himself able to speak eloquently. A hymn steadies the stammering tongue to the sublimest and most equable utterance. Singing is not only the sweetest discoursing, but it is the only natural method by which multitudes may speak to gether, and give to profound truth the impulse of a thousand hearts. There is no testimony ever pub licly uttered to God's faithfulness, to Christ's help fulness, to the Spirit's illumination, to the joyfulness and peace of a Christian life, to the faith and foresight of heaven, that can be compared for fulness, for solem nity, and for grandeur, to that which a congregation makes in the singing of psalms and hymns and a church without singing is like a dwelling without fire or light.
