I Will Sing of My Redeemer: Stories of Christianity’s Most Beloved Hymns
From “Amazing Grace! How Sweet the Sound” to “When I Survey the Wondrous Cross,” this book includes countless anecdotes and histories behind many of Christianity’s most beloved hymns of all time. This volume has been inspired by a desire on the part of the author to create deeper love for the great lyrics of the Christian Church. In pursuing this purpose an effort has been made to present such facts and circumstances surrounding their authorship and composition as will result in a better understanding and appreciation of the hymns themselves.
This volume of cherished hymns invites us to take a deeper look behind the words that impacted generations of faithful believers throughout the world. Ernest Ryden provides the historical background and allows us to better appreciate the depth and meaning of many beloved hymns. The result is a wonderful companion guide to the study of church history and the impact she has had, and continues to have, on the lives of believers.
