Catechism Companion To Hymns Ancient And Modern (1883)

Book Overview

The Catechism Companion to Hymns Ancient and Modern, originally published in 1883, is a comprehensive guide to the hymns included in the popular hymnal of the same name. Written by Frederic C. Skey, a clergyman and musicologist of the Anglican Church, the book provides a detailed analysis of each hymn's lyrics, history, and theological significance, as well as musical notes, suggestions for performance, and references to related scripture passages. The companion is organized according to the categories of the Anglican catechism, which include the Creed, the Ten Commandments, the Lord's Prayer, and the Sacraments, among others. As such, the book serves as a valuable resource for both clergy and laypeople seeking to deepen their understanding and appreciation of the hymns of the Anglican tradition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
