Overview

Excerpt from The Anthem Book of the United Free Church of Scotland: Issued by Authority; Recommended for Use by the Synod of the Presbyterian Church of England, 1909 After the union of the Free and United Presb terian Churches in 1900, a desire was expressed that should be prepared for use in the congregations of the United Church, and accordingly, in 1902, the General Assembly remitted to the Praise Committee to prepare and issue an Anthem Book for use in congregations. In carrying out this remit the Committee have judged it expedient to restrict the collection to anthems in the rendering of which the congregation, as well as the choir, may take part. They have endeavoured to provide an adequate supply of material suited to the needs of the many congregations of the church where it is desirable that the music employed should be of a somewhat simple nature; but they have also included com positions presenting greater degrees of difficulty to meet the requirements of congregations of higher musical attainments. The anthems have been arranged according to their opening texts in the order of the books of Scripture, those with words not taken from Scripture being placed at the end; but for convenience in selection, a classified index has been added, in which the anthems are arranged according to topics.
