One Hundred and One Hymn Stories

Carl F. Price, a pioneering hymnologist, historian, and author, says, "Every real hymn has its story, if only we could discover it.." This book takes behind the scenes with glimpses of the hymn writers to give us those stories. The hymns range from those from familiar hymnologists such as Charles Wesley and Isaac Watts to earlier writings such as from Saint Stephen the Sabaite, and Bernard of Cluny. Here you will find the story behind "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God," "Onward, Christian Soldiers,"
