Contains 825 items from around the world - both hymns and psalms - and includes indexes to First Lines and authors for easy reference.

This new hymnal, widely known as CH4, consists of over 850 hymns and psalms and is the latest in a series published successively in 1898, 1927 and 1972. A considerable number of twentieth century items have been introduced from around the world, primarily the USA and New Zealand, but also translations and adaptations of little known material from such countries as Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, Japan and Zimbabwe. These compliment the tradional and contemporary hymns and tunes from Uk authors and composers.
