We are now entering into the last few days of the Hymn for the day posts on the HSGBI website. If you would like to revisit any, visit some for the first time or perhaps take part in our survey, now is your last opportunity. The hymns chosen cover a wide range of themes and come from different hymn writing eras from the earliest times to the present day.

They will all be removed from the website on 1st September due to the copyright restrictions on some of the hymns featured.

From the archives of The Hymn Society of Great Britain and Ireland comes 'English Hymns and Their Tunes: A Survey by Erik Routley' - this was a Hymn Society publication, printed for the International Hymn Society Conference which we hosted in Oxford in 1981. It was intended for private circulation among members of Conference only and so would have had a very limited circulation. Our Secretary had one copy!

It is now digitised and available on the website for members to read: hymnsocietygbi.org.uk/2020/08/english-hymns-and-their-tunes-a-survey-by-erik-routley/ ... See MoreSee Less
