SINGERS AND SONGS

OF

THE LIBERAL FAITH.

"God sent his singers upon Earth
With songs of sadness and of mirth,
That they might touch the hearts of men,
And bring them back to heaven again."

LONGFELLOW.

"A good hymn is a more valuable contribution to Christian Literature than vast tomes of theology; for it will sing to the ages after the tomes are mouldering on the shelves."
