Excerpt from Singers and Songs of the Liberal Faith: Being Selections of Hymns and Other Sacred Poems of the Liberal Church in America From the circumstance that a large proportion of these hymns and poems have been recovered from the places where they have so long been concealed from view, and from the fact that a very considerable number which have never been given to the public before have been sent as special contributions to these pages by many of the most eminent authors whose names are presented here, it will be seen how fresh, as well as rare, an element pervades the volume. This feature of the book is ren dered perhaps still more interesting by the further con sideration that many of the men and women in our roll of singers are almost exclusively known as prose-writers, while yet they have from time to time produced verses which well deserve to be collected and more widely cir culated. Nor, while there appear in this procession of bards those who have greatly distinguished themselves, not only as poets, but also as essayists, critics, historians, statesmen, preachers, reformers, and philanthropists, have I by any means forgotten others of humbler rank, who have never aspired to literary fame or prominent station, but-who, out of their rural or clo'istered retreats, or out of their daily business toil or domestic care, have also sung the sweet and acceptable songs of our Zion. It is well worthy of note how the divine Spirit has touched and tuned to praise the hearts of so many and such various classes of persons, and how they here blend their voices together in fine accord.
