520    "Hymns in German piety were written to serve as 
       meditations and to teach individuals how to become better 
       followers of Jesus. This volume highlights the spiritual 
       themes of the Brethren as illuminated in their hymnody 
       from their beginnings through the three hundred years to 
       2008. Some of the areas to be examined include: the 
       thinking and influences which shaped what hymns Brethren 
       chose to sing; the themes of which the Brethren authors 
       wrote; which hymns Brethren hymnal compilers and 
       committees chose to include; which tunes the Brethren 
       chose to accompany their hymns; why Brethren musicians 
       composed the tunes as they did; and the manner in which 
       the Brethren rendered their singing. Included, therefore, 
       is a discussion of the major Brethren hymn book 
       publications, hymn text writers and translators, hymn tune
       composers, and worship and singing practices. Specific 
       attention is given to examples of hymn texts which 
       highlight the distinctive themes and characteristics of 
       Brethren spirituality in the various eras of Brethren life
       and thought."--Back cover.
