ALLDAY SINGING.
Old Folks to Sing From Sacred Harp
Song book at Baptist Church.
There will be an all-day old folks
singing at the Baptist church on
tne first Sunday in November, and
all are invited to attend. The book
used will be the old Sacred Harp a
book well known to tin* old people,
and especially Georgians. The book
has been used all over the South,
and has done a world of good. The
music is the purest type of the
sacred music of America, much of
it having been composed by men
who knew little of the classic church
music of the Old W orld and they
-were not influenced by the standards
that are in use in England or in the
European countries. The music in
the Sacred Harp was composed by
men who passed through the great
religious revivals that swept over
this land during the latter part of
the first half of the nineteenth cen
tury and they were greatly inspired
to express their religious feelings in
the language of sacred song. There
is a seriousness and solemnity in
many of the tunes that will not be
popular in a frivolous age like the
present, but they were exactly fitted
to voice, the religious emotions of
men.whose religion was a serious
matter, whose views of lift* was that
f
it meant chiefly a preparation for
eternity, and whose earthly ex
pressions were but a pilgrimage to
an eternal home.
