This is a wonderful treasury of old-time Christian music perfect for session musicians or anyone wanting to learn more of this beautiful music. ..... From the author: "In choosing what songs to include, I primarily selected ones I remember from my own childhood, growing up in Baptist and Pentecostal congregations in northern Ohio. I have also included the more hymn-like Christmas carols in this collection, since the hymnals I grew up with did so.My hope is that this book will help you along your own musical journey, and will also help to keep these wonderful traditional Christian hymns and spirituals alive for generations to come. Music revivals come and go, and music is always evolving and changing, but some classics stand the test of time. This book is my effort to help ensure these songs will endure. Happy strumming!"
