Martin E. Marty, Emeritus Professor at the University of Chicago, says it best in the forward of this new hymn tune collection, “Teach Our Hearts is full of music that will indeed belong in cathedrals and inspire their choirs. But I am here called upon to witness to the fact that everything in this book is singable among smaller worshipping communities, where volunteer choirs help lead ordinary congregations-if there are such-in singing.” 54 new hymns, songs and carols are presented here texts by a plethora of well-known writers.
