Excerpt from Methodist Hymn and Tune Book: Official Hymn Book of the Methodist Church The Committee have earnestly endeavoured to verify the authorship of hymns and to examine and compare versions. The few changes which they have introduced into some of the old hymns, will, they trust, justify themselves. The addition also of dates tothe names of authors and composers will be helpful as a silent reminder of the continuity of the Faith. Nor has it been forgotten that a Hymn Book has other uses than that of public worship and should contain some material which will seldom be sung.
