Excerpt from Psalms and Hymns, Adapted to the Service of the Church of England, and for Occasional Use: Partly Original, and Partly Extracted From Various Authors
Music and Poetry are never more properiy employed than in celebrating the praises, and extolling the perfections of that bountiful Creator who tuned the voice to sing, and formed the ear to enjoy the sounds of harmony: nor is any part of divine worship more delightful and animating than the smging of a devout congregation, whose praises ascend in concert to the throne of the redeemer. It is therefore matter of serious regret, that in many parish churches this service should be performed in a manner! Calculated to pro duce contempt and disgust, rather than to excite devotion.
