Résumé :
Excerpt from The Sunny Side: A Book of Religious Songs for the Sunday School and the Home The feature of the book to which we desire to call especial attention, is a collection of nearly two-score German Child and Folk Songs which it contains, and which have been selected with great care from the rich mine of German song. Many of the accompany ing poems have been happily translated for us by Rev. Charles T. Brooks, who has kindly given his valuable services to our cause. We trust the sweet ness and sterling quality of these melodies will make them favorites in the Sunday-school. For the rest, we have tried to keep the tunes within the range of the children's voices, have printed the words under the music wherever possible, observed a natural order in the succession of the hymns, added two indexes for convenient reference, and thus aimed at producing a practical, helpful book in the religious nurture of the young. And so may this little work, the fruit of many hours of pleasant labor, go into many a Sunday-school and home, to inculcate a. Natural, joyous piety, and bring the cheer and blessing of song into the hearts of. Young and old. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
