More about the book
Set in 1782, this collection showcases the works of Isaac Watts, known as The Father of English Hymnody. His contributions significantly shaped hymn writing and its role in English church worship. Notably, he authored "Joy to the World," originally not intended as a Christmas carol, but as part of his 1719 work, "Psalms of David Imitated," which features paraphrases of Psalms in New Testament language. This volume is the first of seven, including a biography of Watts, highlighting his enduring influence on hymnody.
