5.0 out of 5 stars
Theologically superb, February 18, 2000
This review is from: Trinity Hymnal: Red Cover Edition (Hardcover)
This is a great hymnal in that it is very theologically sound relative to the Reformation. All the hymns are in reality wonderful sermons that are Biblically accurate. You never have to worry about whether you are singing heresy with this hymnal.

A theologically rich, glorifying worship aid, February 14, 2006
This review is from: Trinity Hymnal: Red Cover Edition (Hardcover)
Being a dyed-in-the-yarn Southern Baptist, I've always known about the Baptist Hymnal in its various editions. Having used the latest edition in a church for about three years (as a Minister of Music) I began to long for a hymnal that had more substance. Since I have found the writings of the Reformers to be challenging and deep, I thought I would order this hymnal, which I was told contained many of their hymns. I was NOT disappointed! The Trinity Hymnal, while barely larger than its Southern Baptist counterpart, has many more hymns. In addition, it also contains responsive readings, selected Psalms, the Westminster Confession, other creeds, and the Shorter Catechism.
By the way, I purchased my copy from Great Commission Publications (www.gcp.org). It is a hardback version (as opposed to the ring-bound version pictured). The cost for the hymnal and Trinity Psalter (which I also HIGHLY recommend) was under $30, UPS shipping included!

Mostly pleased with Trinity Hymnal, March 8, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Trinity Hymnal: Red Cover Edition (Hardcover)
For the most part I have been pretty pleased with the Red edition of the Trinity hymnal though I was very sorry to lose some of the great hymns that were found in the blue Trinity hymnal. Also, several alterations in the words of some of the hymns such as "How Sweet and AWESOME is the Place", instead of "How Sweet and AWFUL is the Place" were sort of annoying to me. But, on the whole, it's a fairly good hymnal and I enjoy using it.
