From one of the world's leading authors on apologetics, this tribute to Christianity's great old hymns will release a refreshing shower of memories. Each of the 28 hymns selected for this volume detail the rich history and background of the music, and the composer. The author is particularly effective in weaving scriptural threads into his study of each song, showing how the writers of our classic hymns loved the Bible and its meaning for our lives.

Suitable as a gift for music lovers, or a teaching tool for church study groups, HOW FIRM A FOUNDATION IN SCRIPTURE AND SONG is a magnificent look at a rich past that looks forward to a glorious future.
