Each hymn melody and text has on the opposite page biographical information of the author of the text and the composer of the tune.. In addition there are suggestions of what you should consider as you sing this hymn. These devotional thoughts bring great meaning to the wonderful, timeless texts. Spread throughout the book are thirteen paintings from The Art Institute in Chicago, the National Gallery of Art, and the Bridgeman Art Library that were chosen as reflections of hymn texts. Beautiful calligraphy by artist, Timothy Botts, gracefully divides the hymns under three broad sections of the Church Year, the Attributes of God, and Our Response. This book was written for use in worship chapels at Christian Schools, children's ministries of churches, and family worship. An accompaniment book and recording of all hymns will be released in Fall 2015. Please visit www.studenthymnal.com.

Our prayer is that our children will be singing theologically-rich hymns such as the ones found here long after we are gone and will continue to pass them on from generation to generation."
