ST. ALBANS
 PREFACE.
SURELY no man has ever been called upon to make,
or direct the making of, so many Song Books as I have. It
is no little consolation at seventy to know that millions of

people in every part of the world are singing God s praises

together as a result of the efforts He has helped me to put
forth or to direct for their good.
Yet it has seemed good to me at this time to attempt
something like a thorough selection of those songs which
we have found most useful in all lands, so that my people
may have a larger storehouse of songs that may be used
for all occasions, and that they may the more easily see
what I would have them leave behind, and what preserve,
translate, and use.
I thank Godfor the gifts of all His servants, ancient and
modern, whose compositions I have been able to adopt,
but it is not intended in any degree to limit the flow of
new gongs, for wherever these songs are sung they will
cause the production of others, and many here may yet be
left behind should the number of our best song-makers be
multiplied. I also wish to prevent the lowering of our
standard, the taste of our people and the character of our
service, by the use of songs that may have some worldly
popularity just because they are not so definite or so hot as
these.
Let others, if they please, heap together pretty poetry
and sing it to what is called refined music." Let us
"

persevere in our singing of the simple old truths in the

simple old hearty way that God has already blessed so
widely to the salvation of souls and the making and training
of red-hot soldiers.

But, above all, let me urge all who possess this book to
make the utmost use of it in three ways :

1. Take in meaning of every song. How thoughtlessly

the
many sing familiar words. Yet here is a great treasury of
truth if you will but search into its riches. Be determined
 iv.

that by God s grace you will never sing what you do not
really mean and that you will be fitted to sing all you find
here.
2. Sing and read and teach these songs to your children,

morning and evening, at birthday celebrations and other

family functions, as well as to the sick and to all whom you
can influence. What a debt many of ue owe to the songs
we learnt in childhood ! What clear-thinking, plain-
speaking, God-knowing Salvationists will those be who
have properly learned what these songs contain. Banish
from your homes and children hymns and songs that are
not straight and plain.
3. Sing so as to make the world hear. There cannot be a
greater farce than for people to sing these songs at home
and in our barracks amongst admiring listeners, unless they
sing them also to the world. The highest value of our
singing after all has not been the mere gladness we have
felt because of our own salvation, but the joy of pouring
out the praises of our God to those who have not known
Him, or of arousing them by our singing to new thoughts
and a new life.
And sing tillyour whole soul is lifted up to God, and
then sing till you lift the eyes of those who know not God
to Him who is the fountain of all our joy.

CONTENTS.
PART I.
 EXPLANATORY NOTES.
EEFEEENCES.
1. The references at the head of the Songs
in ordinary type refer to "Salvation Army
Music," which is being issued along with this-

Song Book, and also to the New Band Book,

the numbers being the same, as the tunes and
their order are the same in both the Music
Book and the Band Book. The italicised refer
ences which appear in some instances (for ex

ample, "Near the Cross," B.J. 8 see page

10) have reference to tunes not contained in
either the new Music Book or the Band Book.
2. Under the number of the Song letters or
figures are in most cases given indicative of
the metre (such as L.M., 6-8 s, etc.), and below
these figures appear letters which refer to Sec--
tions of theMetrical Index of Tunes, which
found at the end of the Book, in which
will be
Index other tunes to which the Song can be.
sung will also be found.
 VU1.

INDEXES.
Songs are more readily remembered by some
people by the first line of the Chorus rather than
the first line of the Song itself. To meet this, tliA

General Index, in addition to giving the first line

of the first verse of the Song, gives the first Une of
the Chorus in italics.

CHOBUSES.
1. In the Songs contained in this Boole two
choruses have in several cases been given, generally
one for each of the tunes indicated at the head of
the Song as being available for it.

2. The collection of over 200 Choruses at the end

of the book consists of both old and new choruses.

The words are given in full, under proper
headings and according to keys, so that there will
be found in this collection ready-made Medleys for
all occasions. To an Officer, a Leader of an
Open-air Meeting or a March, this will prove very
helpful.

Thou blest Bock of Ages, I m hiding in Thee !

The love and compassion of Jesus thy God ?

A fountain is opened, how canst thou refuse
To wash and be cleansed in His pardoning
blood ?

3 Delay not, delay not, O sinner, to come,

For mercy still lingers, and calls thee to-day;
Her voice is not heard in the vale of the tomb
Her message, unheeded, will soon pass away.

And leave thee in darkness to finish thy race,
