The word "hymn" comes from the Greek "hymnos", meaning a festive song. To hymnologists (people who study hymns), the HYMN is the poetry, the lyrics, which is then set to a HYMN TUNE. Many wonderful hymn tunes have been used over the centuries with several completely different sets of words. The name of a hymn tune seldom matches the name of its hymn, and most people refer to hymns by their poetic names rather than their tune names. However, some hymn tunes are so powerful, so flexible and so rooted in the collective social consciousness that they transcend whatever poetry is put with them. Several tunes in this set have been used for many poems, most of which are unfamilar. But we know the melody instantly! Written for two violins and piano, both a viola and cello part are include to substitue for the 2nd violin. Hymns (tunes) include: 1. All Glory, Laud and Honor (St. Theodulph), 2. Crown Him With Many Crowns (Diademata), 3. Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken (Austria), 4. I Love to Tell the Story (Hankey), 5. Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise (St. Denio), 6. O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing (Axnon), 7. O Worship the King (Lyons), 8. Praise Ye the Lord, the Almighty (Lobe Den Herren).

Like all creation, the world of Christian hymnody grows, changes, and evolves over time. As older hymnals have been replaced and new hymns by contemporary composers have become more widely known, it has grown necessary to update the book that was formerly know as the crowning glory of a life-time of writing about hymns. In this new edition of Erik Routely's An English-Speaking Hymnal guide, it was Peter W. Cutts's intention to expand and restore the original edition to its former glory and place of prominence as one fo the leading references on English hymnody. This book establishes authorship and meter of each hyn, discusses the major differences between versions of the same hymn in varoius hymnals, and takes full account of new hymnody and changing fashions in hymnal editing over the last 25 years. New hymn tunes had to appear in four or more of the major English-speaking hymnals in order to be selected for this work.
