Hi Current Hymns are making a second book of Informal hymns written by friends and workers. They are after hymns if you have any please read below. If you haven't bought the first book you can contact Don DD below. I love mine so many encouraging hymns in it...looking forward to the second book coming out!!
We’re writing this email to a number of people who have asked for the Current Hymns booklet these past 4 years as well as to some others who enjoy music. If you’ve received a Current Hymns booklet, we hope you’re enjoying it! It was 4 years ago when we completed the Current Hymns booklet project. We wondered if we’d ever get to the point of wanting to do another booklet or even if we should do another booklet. And so now, we’ve come to the point that we’d like to see if there are any more hymns “out there” that could be shared with the prospect of seeing about doing a 2nd Current Hymns booklet. If you have any hymns you would like to send our way, we’d be glad to consider them for the booklet. If you know of someone else who does, you could share this email with them. Something that seems good to mention, is that this booklet is just an informal booklet of hymns that workers and friends have written. Many hymns are written and then kept in folders or piano benches, so this is a way to be able to share and enjoy them with others. We would like to give some suggestions for sending in hymns: Please limit it to 10 per person · Original Music is preferred · Existing music will be considered, but please find proof that it's not copyrighted (can check on cocatalog.locgov · We need to know who the poet and composer or, or a way we can found out. · At least one should be professing, that is either the poet or the composer · Complete music in sheet music format please · If you have chords, please add those Please send in any hymns to XXXXX The best way to send them would be in PDF format, or you can take a picture of them and send them that way. Please don't feel like you need to send a generic or chatty reply to this email. If everyone does, we will be overrun with emails! Thanks! D.Davidson, E. Nelson and helpers

All the Great Hymn writers through history were/are "professing". They would somewhere in their life "professed",made a profession of Faith!!!! So this eliminates "no one",especially the great 21st century hymn and poet writers,doesn't it?? Sad that there is still those that confuse the narrow way with a narrow mind.P.S Put some of todays great hymns and spiritual/worship songs on here for people to listen to the "WORDS' of real praise. Thanks for placing the above Walker,do they still snap antennas off cars,they did to me once and it was a business owned car.Maggie.

I doubt they would snap antennas off of cars in the developed world. In the Third world, they might try to keep that kind of control.

I've been doing the notation work for Murray Lewis. We got nine songs redone, three were new songs and sent them to these folks. They'd requested them. Murray was in Country music for 48 years. After retiring, he went back to mtgs. And began composing hymns. He'd said all the time he was in Country music he. Wanted to write his own material but couldn't. But after turning to the Lord, his inspiration is awesome. He certainly keeps me hopping.

This isnt the first time...I have copies of four booklets of supplemental hymns published over 30 years ago that have the name of a Chamberlain fellow in NZ printed in them. Don't know if he published them or just distributed them.

I once had one of those huge Redemption Songs books that had 1000 or so hymns. It had to have been old, -it was re-covered with plastic and to think I am almost sure that I threw it out! Mad at myself!

Without looking on the Internet, Redemption Songs hymn book shouldn't be too hard to find. Lots of churches used them. They were nothing to do with 2x2s although they would have taken some of their hymns from Redemption songs.

I am just mad at myself that I got rid of mine because it was quite old.

I am usually too much the other way, -keeping all kinds of stuff.

I have my sister's she'd bought back in sixties and I'd been using my aunt's who bought her in thirties. Quite a difference in which songs. However some are same. I saw a reprint of even more recent yearsand there are ddifferences even in that one. Likely late eighties it nineties edition.

Don't know if he published them or just distributed them. Yes, he published them and they were distributed. Many of us bought sets from the bookshop at Convention where we could buy Bibles, Hymn books, concordances and Bible bags. All the various books were displayed on a table and you selected what you wanted and paid for them. It opened for three days of convention and closed on Sunday. When I was very young, there was a green paper backed hymnal that some friends carried with their regular hymns old and new. If I remember right Colorado had them and used them in meetings all the time but Ark and Okla didn't have them. My aunt had in because they lived in Colorado when her family was young besides she was a great song collector. I also collect songs.

That green paperback was used extensively on the West coast. Some of the hymns from it are in the '87 edition.

The 'green paperbacks" were called Leaflets in US and Supplements in Australia.
LEAFLETS or SUPPLEMENTS
The Supplementary Hymnbook, also called the " Leaflet," was introduced in 1940s in South Australia by Overseer John Baartz, who loved music. For nearly 50 years it was used in South Australia and was frequently changed, having eight additions. Only one leaflet was printed after John Baartz' death in 1964. The early editions were words only and each Leaflet contained about 12 to 18 hymns. As the years went by, the Leaflets grew in size and print quality and from words only to a music edition.
In 1941, Bill Carroll, Overseer of Victoria, published a Leaflet for the first time. Leaflets in Victoria ran for about 25 years with two editions. Included were some hymns by Willie Hughes, Sam Jones, and Bill Carroll's daughter May Schulz, who had written a number of beautiful hymns.
Leaflets were also used in meetings in the Western U.S. Perhaps, Jack Carroll got the idea from his brother Bill and instigated them there. They were not used in the Eastern U.S. under George Walker.
The Leaflets continued to be used even after the new 1951 Edition of Hymns Old and New was published. However after the 1987 Hymnbook was printed, they were discontinued.

The paper backed orange one was the Hymns old and new with words only. Although there had been an orange paperback that was Hymns Old and New, music and words. This likely was 51's. There were not many of music and words made.
