| Summary | "The Singing Church: The Hymns It Wrote and Sang" by Edmund S. Lorenz is a scholarly discussion on Christian hymns, likely written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the definition, purpose, and practical use of hymns in church worship, providing insights into the historical and emotional significance of hymns in Christian life. Lorenz aims to bridge the gap between literary analysis and practical application, highlighting the importance of hymns not only for worship but also for community and individual spiritual experiences. At the start of the work, the author expresses his intent to contribute to the existing literature on hymns by emphasizing their practical value rather than solely scholarly analysis. He acknowledges the historical contributions of notable hymnologists and outlines his approach to defining hymns in terms of worship and emotional expression. Lorenz stresses the foundational role of hymns in both personal spirituality and communal worship, suggesting that a thorough understanding of their purpose and effective use can significantly enhance church services. His preface establishes a framework for the subsequent exploration of hymnology, integrating emotional and spiritual dimensions with practical considerations for their use in worship.
