Reprint of the original, first published in 1883.

Excerpt from A Collection of Hymns, for the Christian Church and Home In complying with this request the Compiler has select ed, from all the various sources accessible to him, four hundred and fifteen hymns, thus exceeding by a few the number to which it was deemed expedient to restrict the Collection, independent of the Ascriptions, Subjects of Anthems, Sacred Airs, &c. Such hymns of the former' Collection are retained as were thought most worthy of a place in the new one, designated by the mark, 0. Col. The volume will be found to contain the most choice, it is believed, of the hymns in the several Collections used in our churches, together with many others equally choice, to be found in no other Collection in this country.
