This book consists of verse in rhyme and rhythm written, mostly line by line, from two poetry books (Psalms and Proverbs) in sacred scripture. Rhyming poetry appeals to the ear and is often easier to memorize. The poems are not a translation of God's word, but are a paraphrase. The verses often give a new way of expressing the old message, something that will appeal to preachers, teachers, and many others who love the word of God.
