Title: Best-Loved Hymns
Description: The hymns of the Christian church constitute one of the most elevating and sustaining forms of music. Because this is so, the compiler and editor of this volume has had much pleasure and satisfaction in gathering the material for it. While no compilation could have in it all the best-loved hymns of everyone, it is believed that this collection contains more favorites of more people than any other low-priced volume. The selection of its hymns was based not alone upon popularity but also upon the character and quality of text and music. Discriminating care was used in selecting the hymns and it is believed that this book, Best-Loved Hymns, will prove a source of joy and inspiration to all who use it.  - Preface.
