Christian Worship is a name versatile enough to match a versatile suite of resources. A practical problem we faced when reviewing the list of potential names for the hymnal was this: the new hymnal project was producing far more than just a hymnal. We have a hymnal, yes, but also a psalter, a service builder, a lectionary, a commentary, a musicians resource, and several volumes of support material. Words like “hymnal” and “service book” weren’t quite versatile enough for the scope of the project. The Christian Worship name, on the other hand, allows these various and versatile resources to be drawn together under a single name to communicate a unifying mission. Christian Worship: Hymnal works hand in hand with Christian Worship: Psalter and Christian Worship: Service Builder. All these publications give congregations rich resources to support the work of bringing the means of grace to the people of Christ.Like the verses above, Scriptures encourage us to sing praises unto the Lord and rejoice in His grace and mercy for us. Church hymns are a powerful way to praise the Lord, joining in song to worship our King and Savior, Jesus Christ! May these beloved church hymns inspire joy and love for God and your neighbor.
