About this book
The Story of Our Hymns by Ernest Edwin Ryden recounts the singing of hymns and includes Ambrose's testimony about their effect on people. The account describes Augustine's initial attraction to the eloquence of Ambrose's preaching and his return to studying Scripture before his conversion. The account dates Augustine's baptism at the hands of Bishop Ambrose to Easter Sunday, 387 A.D.
A story about a Belfast minister describes a visit to a mill where two hundred girls were employed, many belonging to his congregation. The mill story recounts how a girl's singing was taken up by others until the song sounded above the looms.
