Reviews
I love how Laura Smith reminds the reader why we should continue to make room for the rich theology and powerfully poetic language of hymns of the past. --Nicole Hickman, drummer for Christian band I AM THEY From the Publisher (4/16/2020 12:00:00 AM) In a time when it seems easier than ever to find what divides us rather than what brings us together, this book is so important. Laura Smith reminds us that hymns connect us to the past and unite us in the present. When we sing these songs, our souls feel that sense of unity--both to those who have come before us and also to our brothers and sisters who sing beside us. --The Bundys, who appeared on The Voice From the Publisher (4/16/2020 12:00:00 AM) In our world obsessed with change, this book helps us engage and anchor in the never-ending song to our King of Kings. Hymns are the heart's cry of God's people for generations. Laura Smith helps them become new songs we sing to the Lord. --Andi Rozier, Vertical Worship From the Publisher (4/16/2020 12:00:00 AM) There are few sweeter moments than hearing the voices of multiple generations singing together. . . . Hymns do that. They unite. Their cadence and lyrical depth have been instrumental in my journey of worshiping in Spirit and truth. How Sweet the Sound reminds Jesus followers of their powerful impact. --Holly Starr, Christian recording artist From the Publisher (4/16/2020 12:00:00 AM)
