Excerpt from Hymn and Tune Book for Use in Old School or Primitive Baptist Churches In response to many requests we have prepared this book to supply a need long felt in our churches. We hope our principal motive in the work has been a desire for the benefit of the Lord's people, and for his own declarative glory. We have endeavored to select such hymns and tunes as are most commonly used in churches of our faith and order in all the different sections of the country. In the selection of hymns our first care has been that every sentiment expressed should be in harmony with the truth of God, believing that "Christians should never sing what they do not believe to be true." We have also chosen those that express the common experience of the saints, and which breathe a spirit of praise and holy devotion to God, rather than such as appeal to the natural sympathies, regarding them as more suitable to the purpose for which this book is designed, which is, to be used in the meetings of the saints, whose only object in singing should be the worship of the true and living God in spirit and in truth. In the association of hymns and tunes we have in some instances had respect to long use; in others we have determined the arrangement according to our own judgment, and the character of melody preferred in different localities. Should any fail to find in this book some favorite hymn or tune, as may sometimes be the case, we hope they will find others equally desirable, and will remember the impossibility of an arrangement of so small a number that would contain the favorites of all. We hope for the favorable consideration of our brethren, and humbly ask and hope that our own imperfect labors may be blessed of the Lord to his dear people.
