Excerpt from Five Services for Public Worship With Services for Special Occasions
The preparation of this book was undertaken in response to a demand for some new book of worship less costly than the book entitled "Prayer and Praise," arid of somewhat different character. The "Five Services," here republished, have been arranged in such order that the Te Deum may be sung on the second and fourth Sundays of the month, instead of the first and second, and various other changes have been made corresponding to suggestions received from ministers who desire to use them. Especially an attempt has been made to introduce into the "rubric" the utmost possible degree of flexibility. Keeping to what is now the generally accepted order in worship, - namely, (1) some Introductory Exercise, (2) a Responsive Reading, (3) a Scripture Lesson, (4) Prayer, - these services permit much variety of usage. The introductory portion may begin with or without a hymn of praise, and may include or omit the Confession. It may be followed by an anthem or a hymn, or, immediately, by a responsive reading. Provision has been made for either one or two Scripture Lessons.
