PREFACE.

THIS Hymnal has been compiled by a Committee of the Presbyterian Church of England, appointed by the Synod which met at Newcastle-on-Tyne, in April 1881. The following were members of the Committee :

The work is based, indeed, upon "Psalms and Hymns for Divine Worship," (Messrs. J. Nisbet & Co.) the copyrights of which have been transferred to it by the proprietors; but the changes made have been so great, and the reconstruction of the book has been so complete, that it was deemed necessary to give it a new title, and "CHURCH PRAISE" has been adopted with the view of distinguishing it from other Hymnals.

The Committee tender their grateful acknowledgments to the following for permission kindly given to insert copyright hymns or translations :—
