Overview

Excerpt from The Silver Trumpet: A Collection of New and Selected Hymns; For Use in Public Worship, Revival Services, Prayer and Social Meetings, and Sunday Schools Silver is a precious metal, and if it be pure, has melody in its ring. Silver is an old commodity, and the trumpet is an old instrument, and the silver trumpet will not forget the old notes that cheered the hearts of pilgrims in days of yore. But the silver has gone through new processes of refinement, and the trumpet has had such additions and improvements as will enable the silver trumpet of to-day to bring forth things that are new, as well as to perpetuate the best from the old treasuries of song. About a year ago I wrote to Dr. Gilmour, earnestly requesting him to prepare a book of intensely spiritual songs, such as would give to the Christian world the benefit of his experience as a leader of singing at camp meetings, Sabbath-schools, and in revival services. I hail with special delight the appearance of the silver trumpet, which so richly meets the great need that I had in mind when I wrote to him. It was indeed a happy thought in the Doctor to make Rev. R. Kelso Carter an associate in this blessed service, and thus give us the benefit of his experience in the same line Of christian work. On the baptism of the Holy Ghost the silver trumpet gives no uncertain sound, and we doubt not but its-echoes will be heard far on in the years to come.
