This book is a beautiful collectible for anyone.  From it’s gorgeous cover to the jagged edges of the paper inside.  The antique appearance and beatifully scripted pages make it a keepsake for all.
Each page presents a seperate hymn, followed by a brief one-page history and explanation for each.  The thoughtful stories, describe everything from the happiness, the triump, to the pain of creating such lovely hymns.  The words of the songs will not be the only thing that grabs hold of the heart  The strong, inspiring stories give strength to the words of each one.
The list of hymns is amazing in itself.  All of the old favorites from the Old Rugged Cross to Silent Night are included in this gorgeous book.  Several Sweet Southern Hymns are also included – being a Southern girl, I truly appreciate this aspect of the book.  Every story will touch the heart in some way, leaving you wanting to learn more about the words of the hymns and the authors themselves. 
This book is highly recommend for every music lover, choir member and simply every Christian there is.   Add Then Sings My Soul to your collection today!

On This Day In Christian History: 365 Amazing and Inspiring Stories about Saints, Martyrs, and Heroes
Robert J. Morgan
Thomas Nelson Publishers
$12.99
Buy it at Amazon.com
Website: Robert J. Morgan – Author
Amazing stories of faith from twenty centuries of church history.

From the Roman Empire to the Reformation, St. Valentine to St. Francis, Martin Luther to Billy Graham, On this Day introduces readers to a parade of preachers, popes, martyrs, heroes, and saints from 2,000 years of Christianity.

This introduction to 365 of the most interesting men and women of faith brings a year’s worth of inspiration and spiritual challenge and offers an enjoyable glimpse into church history. Each day includes a related Scripture reading and a simple, colorful story about history-making events in the lives of people who loved God wholeheartedly.

This book tells a bit of Christian History for each day of the year.  The back of the book includes a reading guide broken down by inspirational section.  You can read this book many ways: as a day by day guide, as a inspirational devotional, or as a whole reading all the interesting facts at one time. 

The pages of this book are full of wonderful information about God’s love, reasons, miracles and much more.  Every page provides an inspiring moment from the past, linked with biblical qoutes to bring it all together.  You will walk away feeling full of God’s love and in awe of His word.

I have only read a few of the enticing pages of this book thus far, but I look forward to reading it day by day and feeling connected to the Glory of God and His inspiring truths and miracles.
