A hymn is like a friend. We have friends from childhood and ones we have made along life’s journey – and many of us also like to make new friends. So it is natural to want to know something of a hymn’s story: who wrote the words, and why; who the composer is and what prompted them to write the music. Sing to the Lord! considers the stories behind the words and the tunes, which are as interesting and exciting as each other. For they are all human stories.
