Carmina for the Sunday School (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Carmina for the Sunday School

N this volume, a sincere effort has been made to provide a hymnal worthy of and suited to the occasions of Sunday School life. To this end every publication, American and foreign, that promised a reward to faithful search, has been examined.

The tunes, new and old, have also been carefully chosen within the range of children's voices, and adapted to the hymns and the character of the service. The design has been to accomplish for the Sunday School, within the limits of hymnals for youth, what has been done for the worship of the greater congregation.

Special attention has been given to scriptural hymns, and a larger number of didactic hymns of high character admitted than would be appropriate in a book for adults. A selection has been added for teachers' meetings and Sunday School prayer meetings, which, it is believed, will be welcome.
