Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Portfolio of Sunday School Songs To crowd into the limits of a volume of this size all that is desirable in a book of Sunday School Song, so that all tastes shall be gratified and every requirement be met. The editors of the portfolio have sought to compile a work which should fairly meet the demand for such hymns and music as should lend a fresh interest to the service, and give it a new impetus in an upward direction. Their wide experience leads them to believe that the average Sunday Schools in our land will not longer tolerate that which is puerile and meaningless in hymnology, or frivolous in music, and that, on the other hand, they will quite generally be repelled by a scholastic dignity which involves much difficulty in execution. It is hoped that a thorough and candid examination of the portfolio may show it to contain abundance of material, in song and responsive exercises, which will at once engage the interest of all and lift the service to a higher plane.
