Summary

"This 1100-page hymnal is the first major book of its kind to be published in decades; it is the culmination of eight years of inspired work by a committee of more than thirty musicians and pastors, including many national leaders in African American worship and gospel music. The 575 hymns, spirituals, and gospel songs in this book represent the common repertoire of African American churches across the United States." --from Publisher.
