Near to the Heart of God: Meditations on 366 Best-Loved Hymns

The lyrics of our favorite hymns are rich in images that can help us in our daily walk with God--they are miniature Bible studies that lead us effortlessly toward worship, testimony, exhortation, prayer, and praise. They're bursts of devotional richness with rhyme and rhythm. They clear our minds, soothe our nerves, verbalize our worship, summarize our faith, and sing our great Redeemer's praise. Bestselling author Robert J. Morgan has gathered 366 hymns, including favorites such as "Amazing Grace" and "Rock of Ages," as well as classic, lesser-known gems such as "In the Garden" and "Teach Me to Pray."

Each devotional begins with Scripture, includes a story about the hymn or its writer and the lyrics to the hymn, and ends with a prayer. An index of hymn titles and first lines is included. What better way to end your devotional reading than with a song in your heart?

If you love music, particularly the great hymns of the Faith, you will enjoy this book. The author has put together a book of short devotional stories surrounding 366 hymns. He includes the famous as well as the obscure. Each devotion includes the lyrics, story regarding the events surrounding the hymn, and Scripture. This is perfect to use as devotional readings in your small group or in your private devotions.

Wonderful back ground information on so many of the traditional hymns. Interesting the way the author relates the date of the year to an event related to the hymn. Nice to have for daily reading.

Robert Morgan has done it again, and these meditations that reflect on hymns are well-written. Robert Morgan is a blessed speaker, pastor, and writer, and has been for many years. I highly recommend this book for Christians and for lovers of classic hymns.
