"I remember more hymns than I do sermons." That's the verdict of nearly everyone, including preachers. This is a book for people who love hymns. In this book about twenty-eight of the classic and most cherished hymns, you'll find the stories behind the hymns and meditations on their meaning.

Many of the greatest hymn writers in history are here--for example, Martin Luther ("A Mighty Fortress Is Our God"), Isaac Watts ("Our God, Our Help in Ages Past"), Charles Wesley ("O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing"), and John Newton ("Amazing Grace"). The names of some composers are forgotten, but their hymns live forever: "Now Thank We All Our God," "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah," "How Firm a Foundation," "Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us," "Just as I Am," "Abide with Me," "The Church's One Foundation."
