The hymns that are part of our heritage. How our greatest hymns reflect their writers’ faith.

By Peter Currie
Published by Ambassador Books

In an era when modern choruses are sometimes criticised for being unscriptural or self-centred, traditional hymns remind us of timeless biblical truths.

Peter Currie has been inspired to compose a compelling insight into the lives and backgrounds of some of the most influential hymn writers in Christian history. He focuses largely on hymns composed between the 1700s and 1800s, introducing figures as diverse as a child prodigy, a convert from a reckless youth, and one who was blind from childhood. These hymns remain highly regarded for the depth of biblical and theological truth they convey.
