Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hymns and Sacred Lyrics, Vol. 1 of 3 Some of the following pieces are, perhaps, not unsuitable to congregational singing, although a large proportion of them decidedly belong to the class of Sacred Poems an important distinction, not always preserved. This observation is confirmed by several Collections of Hymns, where many of the mate rials are not sufficiently individual, and do not enough express the language of the heart, in the forms of adoration, thanksgiving, supplication, and praise. These deficiencies, it is to be feared, obstruct, in no unimportant degree, the beneficial effects of singing; that which ought, and often is, and might always be.
