Best Church Hymns

by Louis Fitzgerald Benson

This volume presents the results of a survey conducted by Louis Fitzgerald Benson, an American Presbyterian minister, to determine the 32 most popular hymns among 107 hymn-books in use in 1898. The book includes the texts of these hymns, along with explanatory notes and two essays discussing hymns and their standards. Benson's work provides valuable insights into the popularity and significance of hymns in the late 19th century.
