Excerpt from Hymns for the Worship of God: Selected and Arranged for the Use of Congregations Connected With the Church of Scotland
The following selection of Hymns has been made in order to meet the want, felt by many, of some addition to our present Psalmody. The Hymns have been drawn from many sources, and care has been taken to include only those which possess the genuine qualities of a good hymn. On many topics, the Psalms of David furnish us with all the expression we need in our Christian worship; and a noble inheritance it is which the sweet singer of Israel has bequeathed to the church of God. On other subjects, and these of the very highest importance, the children of God have to sing for themselves in uninspired language, as they look back to the cross, or enjoy the fulness of the Gospel dispensation.
