Présentation de l'éditeur

Song and Service Book lies in the fact, that there is constant progress in methods of Sunday-S chool instruction and worship. The gains thus made need to be gathered up from time to time for general use. A particular cause was found in the wide demand for a collection of hymns and tunes embodying some of the most popular old ones with an admixture of new pieces. We call attention to the following points: The General Services, ten in all, are supposed to be sufficient in number and variety to meet the wants of a Sunday School from month to month. The majority are simple in structure; a few are more elaborate. They are intended for schools well trained in music, and also for those less equipped in musical ability. The use of any particular service in the book is open to free judgment, whereby omissions, introduction of hymns, and other adaptations, can be made. Some familiar congregational tunes will be found in these Services. They do away with the need of turning to another part of the book for a hymn, but do not prevent such a course. These church tunes when learned in childhood prepare the pupils for better worship in the church. It is believed that the ten Special Services for Festival and Commemorative occasions provide ampler facilities for Sunday Schools, in this respect, than have heretofore been offered by any similar collection. The section which includes about fifty carols and tunes, adapted for festival occasions, preserves a great deal of music that has already proved acceptable, beside introducing new material.
