Description

This new
book of congregational song will
include:

• Over 800 hymns,
  psalms,
  and spiritual
  songs.
• Approximately 50% of
  included hymns will be from the 1990
  Presbyterian hymnal. The remaining
  pieces will come from former
  Presbyterian hymnals, other
  denominational songbooks, and
  individual
  authors and composers.
• A
  musical
  setting of almost every Sunday
  lectionary psalm.
• Music from six
  different continents.
• Music
  covering all major historical and
  contemporary sacred genres, including
  approximately thirty-five African
  American/Gospel
  hymns.
• Comprehensive
  indexes.

Glory to
God will also contain worship aids
and printed liturgies for Sunday
services (including baptism and the
Lord's Supper) and services for daily
prayer. Complete orders of service will
include congregational responses,
prayers, and creeds. These will be
perfect resources for "green"
congregations, camps and conference
centers, daily prayer services, and
time-pressed pastors.

The
pew
edition of Glory to God is
available in either of two colors, red
and purple, in either of two versions: a
Presbyterian edition and an
ecumenical
edition. The Presbyterian version is
Glory to God: The Presbyterian
Hymnal and will be stamped with
the
PC(USA) seal on the spine. The
ecumenical version is Glory to God:
Hymns, Songs, and Spiritual Songs
and will not have the seal. The
contents
of both editions are identical.
