A new edition of the popular 'office' hymn book, Hymns for Prayer and Praise provides carefully-selected hymns for the daily monastic office, the Calendar of Saints and the seasons of the Christian year. First published in 1996, this new edition has been updated in light of Common Worship: Daily Prayer. A 'chant' and 'melody' form are provided for each hymn, allowing the material to be used in both community and congregational contexts. Available in both Full Music and Melody editions, Hymns for Prayer and Praise draws on ancient patterns of worship to meet present day needs.
This special collection of selected hymn texts and songs, vintage and new, weaves together the artist's separate personae known to others through her three distinct repertoires: her early folk music, her feminist music, and her several hymn texts set to standard hymn tunes. The book features lyrics and historical notes on left-hand pages and music on the right-hand pages.
Excerpt from Prayer and Praise, or Hymns and Tunes: For Prayer Meetings, Praise Meetings, Experience Meetings, Revivals, Missionary Meetings and All Special Occasions of Christian Work and Worship DC 2 Ever present, truest Friend, 3 When our days of toil Shall cease, Ever near thine aid to lend, W'aiting still for sweet release, Leave us not to doubt and fear, Nothing left but heaven and prayer, Groping on in darkness drear, \vond'ring if our names were there When the storms are raging sore, Wading deep the dismal ood, Hearts grow faint, and hopes give o'er, Pleading nought but Jesus' blood Whisp'ring softly, wanderer come! Vvhisp'ring softly, wanderer come! Follow me, I'll guide thee home. Follow me, I'll guide thee home! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
