New Hymns and Worship Songs has a specific purpose: to update existing Anglican hymn books so your parish can sing the best and most loved compositions of recent years alongside the traditional hymns found in all books.
In this way, parishes which have only recently purchased their hymn books, or are not in a position to replace them at present, can benefit with the minimum financial outlay.
There are 440 hymns and worship songs in New Hymns and Worship Songs, and we calculate that 90 per cent will not be found in existing hymn books. By introducing New Hymns and Worship Songs you will ensure that your parish will be able to enjoy such standard fare as the Taizé and Rizza chants, the beautiful music of Iona, Graham Kendrick's ever more popular songs, the enormous outpouring of worship songs, including Matt Redman's, and those hymns which, although widely used for many years, are not to be found in other collections: fine pieces such as 'How great thou art', 'Our God reigns' and 'Be still, my soul' set to the majestic tune of Finlandia .
