Hymnmakers - Songs Of The Redemption Hymnal CD - Various Artists

This album is a treasured collection of some of the most cherished songs of the past. Birthed in the period in the church’s life where social inequalities were challenged, where great outpourings of the Holy Spirit were experienced, and where growth was significant, this collection of hymns speaks of power, intimacy and urgency in ways that are vital for us to hear today.

First published in 1951, the 'Redemption Hymnal' drew together songs that were the result of a two-decade period of growth and change within the church worldwide. Pentecostalism had been born, and a thirst for the Holy Spirit was widespread. Containing over 800 hymns, it was eventually followed by 'Songs of Fellowship' in 1981.
