Our Hymn Writers and Their Hymns

God’s people have always had a reason to sing. Hymns feed and strengthen faith and a healthy diet of songs fuels our devotion and discipleship.

Our Hymn Writers and Their Hymns traces the development of the hymn from the early Christian church to the present day and helps us better understand the history and tradition of Christian singing.

‘Compellingly tells the stories behind many of the finest hymns in the English language.'
