Sing with Understanding

A well-known and respected authority on hymnody for more than forty years, this third edition builds on its predecessors' scholarship and enhances it with recent developments. New to this edition is a focus on the theology of hymn texts and their music as they form Christians in prayer. More than 150 congregational songs from the treasures of Western hymnody, recent contemporary Christian repertoire, and the global church are analyzed in depth. This book will help everyone sing with both spirit and understanding!
