The compilers of this volume have been induced to prepare and publish it by the repeated solicitation of their brethren, and by their own conviction that such a book is needed by the Churches. The reasons which have produced this conviction, must be as obvious to others as to themselves. It is necessary, therefore, to make few prefatory remarks. As far as it was judged at all expedient, the hymns contained in Winchell sW atts have been omitted; because that is a work highly and very justly approved, and in general circulation among Baptists. This course was also adopted in order to furnish.the denomination with the greater number and variety of valuable and spirit-stirring hymns ;many of which, must have been excluded, had more been copied from Winchell. The practice oi singing is coming more and more to be regarded as an important part dfccmihj worship ;and though an unusual numberof hymnswill be found in this department, it is presumed that those who adopt this delightful practice will not consider it too great. The Hymns for the use of Sabbath Schools are also numerous, and it is devoutly hoped, that they may be found extensively useful in connection witn this interesting branch of relidous instruction. The paucity of hymns in all the books heretofore fmblished, adapted toT emperaiice Meetings, has ong been deeply felt.
