Excerpt from A Practical Discourse on Some Principles of Hymn-Singing
For sometimes I seem to myself to be allowing them undue honour, when I feel that our minds are really moved to a warmer devotion and more ardent piety by the holy words themselves when they are so sung than when they are not so sung; and when I recognize that all the various moods of our Spirit have their proper tones in speech and song, by which they are, through I know not what secret familiarity, excited. But the mere sensuous delight, to which it is not fitting to resign the mind to be enervated thereby, often deceives me, whenever (that is) the delight of the senses does not so accompany the reason as to be cheerfully in submission thereto, but, having been admitted only for reason's sake, then even attempts to go before and to lead. Thus I sin without knowing, but after wards I know.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses principles for hymns in religious practice, exploring their historical changes and ethical significance. The author traces the history of hymnody, from its origins in early Christian plainchant to the development of modern hymnody, highlighting the influence of musical and cultural changes on its evolution. The book examines the role of emotion in hymnody, arguing that it is a crucial element in their effectiveness, and explores the different types of emotions that hymns can express, such as joy, praise, and sorrow. The author contends that hymns can enhance religious devotion by expressing and heightening emotions, and that this emotional power is a key reason for their continued use in religious ceremonies. The book emphasizes the importance of using hymns that are dignified and appropriate for the occasion, and provides guidance on selecting and using hymns effectively. Ultimately, this book offers valuable insights into the nature and use of hymns, and provides a framework for understanding their historical, cultural, and emotional significance in religious practice.
