Recorded by The Celebration Choir with members of The Salvation Army Citadel Band, Best Loved Hymns contains such classics as “How Great Thou Art,” “Be Thou My Vision” and “Mine Eyes Have Seen The Glory.” The title track of Amazing Grace is likely the most popular and best loved hymn of all time, as the recording features the songs of John Newton and William Cowper. Blessed Assurance includes 14 of the 9,000 hymns written by Fanny Crosby, such as “Praise Him Praise Him,” “To God Be The Glory” and “Blessed Assurance.” The Sheffield Celebration Choir, conducted by Jackie Williams, recorded Blessed Assurance and Just As I Am. With 14 of the 1200 songs published in Sankey’s Sacred Songs and Solos, Just As I Am includes the timeless “Trust and Obey,” “What A Friend We Have In Jesus” and the title track, “Just As I Am.”

“Hymns have the ability to touch our hearts and minds, strengthening us in times of weakness, comforting us in times of pain, creating faith in times of doubt and bringing joy in times of sorrow,” says Steve Nicolle, Kingsway Music VP, North America. “Essayist George Sampson once said: ‘The hymn echoes in the heart when the sermon is forgotten.’ The remarkable songs in The Hymn Makers series have literally touched the lives of hundreds of millions over three centuries of Christian hymnody.”
