Overview

Excerpt from Heavenly Carols: For the Sabbath-School, Praise-Service, Prayer-Meeting, &C II. Make the singing a religious exercise. Lst. Hymns contain gospel truths, therefore be sure the whole school understands them. Read them over with the school. Relate incidents illustrative of their sentiments. Strive in every way to surround the songs with holy associations. 2d. Do not allow the school to sing for mere pastime or recreation. Teach them that the song is a devotional exercise, holy in meaning and blessed in o per tunity. Do not allow the Sabbath-school to become a singing-school. Introduce no new songs in the Sab ath school: that should be done in the hour for practice. 3d. D0 nothing else while singing. Just as you would not take up a collection, gather books, or distribute papers during prayer, so do none of these things or any thing else while singing. 4th. Let the superintendent select the songs, keeping in mind the lesson oi the day, and striving to impress the thought in it by a song. We herewith bring to you a new candidate for favor, which we have striven to make a real help and source of inspiration. A large and even unusual number of songs for infant classes and special occasions will prove helpful to you. We also offer you a new Elementary Department, which we consider a very valuable feature of the book. We herewith acknowledge our obligations to the many contributors who have aided us so materially by their many contributions of hymns and music.
