Songs of Praise and Delight by Asa Hull Pdf
Excerpt from Songs of Praise and Delight: A Collection of Original and Selected Songs for Sunday Schools and Young People's Meetings It is too often the case that a few pieces are sung over and over until they are worn out, and then the book is laid aside and many of the best songs never are used. There is not a dull tune in the book, but some pieces will appear more attractive than others on the first trial, but if thoroughly learned they Will be found to be real gems. Such pieces as The Armor of God, The Christian Soldier, Crown Him Forever, Ye Soldiers of the Lord, Arise, The Sacred Stream, Fair Galilee, Excelsior, Marching to the Land Above, The Battle March, and many others of that class are worthy of special attention. Much must be left to the taste of the musical conductor, but we suggest that songs with only one part arranged as solos, may be sung by all in unison never discard a good song because it is not convenient to use it as a solo. On the other hand songs having full harmony parts may be sung as solos, and it makes a pleasing variety to have those with a Refrain sung as Solo and Chorus, all singing the Refrain. It is customary to sing the Chorus after each stanza, but if that makes the piece too lengthy the Chorus may be sung only after the closing verse. In some cases it might be considered advisable to omit the Chorus altogether. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
