February, 1983
Dear fellow-laborer,
There are a number of workers in Canada and U.S.A. that would like new hymnbooks. We have written to Percy Fletcher in England and he replied if the workers in Canada would like to work on this project it would be all right with him. Percy said that when they made the last book, copyrighted in 1951, they tried to make an international English hymnbook, giving all the workers a chance to choose the hymns they liked. The hymns that the most of the workers liked were chosen. However, some hymns had to be omitted, due to the difficulty in getting copyrights. About 32 years have passed, and it may be possible for us to get copyrights on some of the hymns that were favorites years ago. We have appreciated the way R. L. Allan & Son has worked with us in the printing and distribution of our present hymnbook, and we would like them to handle the new book also.
Enclosed is a list of all the hymns in our present book and a few from the various leaflets that are being used by our people in different countries. Some of the old hymns and some in these leaflets would be unknown to many of our workers. Therefore, we have compiled a new leaflet so all the workers can get acquainted with the music and the words of these hymns, enabling them to choose what they would like for the new book. The enclosed list will be used as a ballot.
On the ballot, if you would put an 'X' in the box in front of the hymns you would like for the book, then the favorites of all could be tallied. The hymns you would like to be in the gospel section could be marked with a 'G' in the box instead of an 'X'. From all the hymns listed on the ballot each worker would have the choice of 335 hymns (the same number that is in the present book).
Some of you might like to choose a hymn that is not listed on the enclosed sheet. You can send it with music, the author of the words and the author of the music, and state if you know whether or not it is copyrighted. In the publishing of any book there are errors in grammar, punctuation and music. We would appreciate receiving any corrections on a separate sheet. If you would like any of our hymns put to other music, we would like to know this also. Some of the hymns that have been omitted are very good for solos, duets or quartets, but most would prefer ones that are suitable for our fellowship and gospel meetings, with music not too difficult for the average person to sing. Some of the hymns in our book are rarely sung because of the music--for example, #285. This hymn was originally written to tune #438 in Redemption Songs ("I've Seen the Face of Jesus") and it went very well to that. Some of the workers have suggested having a few more hymns in the gospel book. Hymn #309 should go in the gospel book. We would appreciate any suggestions you may have for a better book.
Some of our friends in California have offered the use of tabulating machines that would simplify counting the votes. After you have gotten acquainted with the hymns on the leaflet and have made your choice of hymns, you can send the completed ballot, plus any additional hymns or corrections to: L. McMullen, 108 - 7th Street S.W., Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, R1N 2K5
When we know which are the favorites, we can begin to work on the copyrights for the new book. After receiving all your choices of hymns, along with those you would like to suggest, then a second leaflet can be made to acquaint all of the workers with the new hymns. Choosing the hymns will be difficult, but we would like, as Percy suggested, to have all of the workers considered in making the choice. We would appreciate receiving your ballot by October 1, 1983. Please use the envelope provided.
Greetings and vest best wishes for fruitful days.
Your brother in Christ,
(Signed) Ernest Nelson
UPDATE FOR 1987 HYMN REVISION
(author unknown)
All will be interested in the new Hymnbook so will just give a brief outline.
All English-speaking countries were represented at the gathering at Los Angeles. The work was done in the home of a Mr. and Mrs. Bert Veldkamp. The workers stayed in the various homes in the vicinity. They were Ernest Nelson, British Colombia; Eldon Tenniswood, California; Garrett Hughes, Colorado; Tharold Sylvester. Washington; Howard Mooney, Oregon; Carson Cowan, Ontario; Charles Steffon. Illinois; Willis Propp, Alberta; Irvine Pearson, Ireland; Norman Henderson and Ken Paginton, England; Hennie Groenewald and Andreas Stark, South Africa; and Herwin Bell, Australia.
There was complete co-operation throughout the whole project and when the new Book comes it can be enjoyed knowing it is the product of total unity.
The new Book will have approximately 400 hymns, 29 have been deleted from the old Book and others added to make up the number. Very few were lost because of copyright problems. Number 239 was not renewable and lost, also the tune of 167 was not available but a very suitable alternative is being used. Quite a number of old tunes have been regained and set again to the hymns originally written to them. E.g. number 90 in the present Book is back to the tune of 308 in the old Book.
Quite a number of hymns that were in the high range and difficult to sing have been set to a lower key.
It is planned to distribute the new tunes and the tune changes to help become acquainted with them before the new Book comes. We hope to have a complete set available for each convention preparation staff. The new book may be available toward the end of 1986. It would be nice to share these details with all the folk as all will be very interested to know about the new Book.
The hymns deleted from the old Book are: 5, 10, 16, 28, 31, 34, 59, 60, 92, 95, 99, 102, 131, 152, 185, 188, 204, 209, 239, 259, 275, 279, 296, 311, 313, 324, 328, 334.
From the New Zealand leaflet numbers, 3, 4, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 25, 28, 29, 30, 31, 34, 37, 40, 41, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 57, 58, have been included in the new Book. Others in the new edition have come from leaflets, new compositions, some from our previous Book and a few from other Books.
SCRIPTURES FOR HYMNS: Several suggestions have been received expressing the desire to have
scripture references included with hymns that are clearly inspired by
certain
passages. Perhaps you would give us your opinion on printing the
following references above the top stave of the hymn:

25 May 1988
Dear Mrs.------------------
Thank you for your letter of 13 May concerning further questions regarding R L Allan. I regret that the following answers may not be particularly helpful, as no one is left within the company who can remember more than 15 or 20 years of R L Allan, and the forming Managing Director of Pickering & Inglis has now passed on.
I understand R L Allan was a Bookseller and Publisher for secular books, second hand books and religious books, based in Glasgow, at the Sauchiehall address. It is likely that some of the directors were Christian men, but I do not know how the friends and workers became associated with R L Allan.
R L Allan became a part of Pickering and Inglis, and at that point the interest became exclusively for the Friends and Workers. We only publish one book for the Friends and Workers--the rest of the product is distributed.
We nave no knowledge of the Hymn Book of Pilgrim Songs, we are aware of the book New Gems of Songs, which was first published in the 1890's, and was available until about 25 years ago. We do not know whether it was used by the Friends and Workers
I regret I do not know Mr. Smith's status within the Friends and Workers, or indeed whether he was a member. Hymns Old and New is published in foreign languages, Spanish, Afrikaans, Norwegian and various others, to date these have not been published by R L Allan.
We do not know whether Mr. Smith was one of the Friends. Hymns Old and New is published in various languages, which we are only partially involved in. Part of the agreement concerning the New Hymn Book was that the authors to be kept anonymous to avoid unhealthy pride etc. Enclosed are some samples of the catalogues from the 50's and 60's.
The Hymn Book was published in April 1987, although this may not be the registered date as release was over a number of months. I am unable to divulge sales figures etc as this comes under the area of confidential company information. I hope the above answers are of some help, and regret not being able to help further.
Yours sincerely,
James Crockatt
General Manager
Changes to Wording in 1987 Edition of the English Hymns Old and New
Some of the edits made to the hymns over the years are deletions of references to being saved by grace alone, to the Trinity, that Jesus was our substitute and paid our ransom:
No. 1 "Tell Me the Story of Jesus" by Fannie Crosby
ORIGINAL WAS: "Glory forever to Jesus, He paid the ransom for me."
NOW 3rd verse: "stay, let me say I will follow Him who has suffered for me."
"The Way to Calvary " by H. Cliff Berrett
WAS No. 165: "As humbly We prepare." (and WAS No. 319 in 1935 ed. HO&N)
"As humbly we prepare our hearts to seek Thy face,
Admitting Christ to dwell within, and save us by His grace."
NOW No. 389 - Verse 1 was omitted, making a new title necessary ("The Way to Calvary ") which omits reference to "save us by His grace."
H. C. Berrett (Cliff), the author of this hymn, was excommunicated by the overseer in Victoria around 1950.
He was a wonderful musician and had a beautiful bass singing voice that was a joy to hear.
Deletions or changes to references to the blood of Jesus:
WAS No. 165: "As humbly We prepare." (and WAS No. 319 in 1935 ed. HO&N)
Verse 6 omitted: "Oh Lord receive us now, Christ's blood bought ones are we."
"Just as I am" No. 158 (deleted verses 2, 3 and 7)
Verse No. 2: "Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To Thee whose blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
"Satisfied" WAS No. 40 - "By His Blood I now am saved."
NOW No. 45 - "By His Blood I am redeemed."
Another line had to be changed to fit the new wording.
Deletion of "Pentecostal Charasmatic" elements:
"Was It For Me?"
WAS No. 35: "O wondrous Love, I'll shout and sing!!" (Too enthusiastic?)
NOW No. 8: "Oh, Wondrous Love, Oh Boundless Grace!"
Changes to references to Christ being God:
"When I Survey the Wondrous Cross" by Isaac Watts
"Forbid it Lord, that I should boast,
Was No. 15 - "Save in the CROSS of Christ MY GOD"
Now No. 6 - "Save in the CROSS of Christ MY LORD."
(Gal. 6:14 KJV: "But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus."
NOTE: The Go-Preacher, 1928, 1935 and 1951 editions contained "Christ my God."
It was changed in the 1987 edition to "Christ my Lord."
Deletions of reference to the Trinity:
Removed No. 239, a beautiful, favorite hymn titled "Cease Not" by worker James Fawcett.
"Our Blest Redeemer"
NOW No. 208 "Our Blest Redeemer"
Original and earlier edition of HO&N has an extra verse (#6), which is omitted in the 1987 edition:
"O Praise the Father, Praise the Son,
Blest Spirit, praise to Thee;
All praise to God, the Three in One,
The one in Three."
[Redemption Songs contains this hymn as No. 539]
Removed Hymn No. 259 of 1935 edition which started out with:
"Hearken to the earnest pleadings of the Holy Trinity
"Who will go for us" with tidings of sweet rest and liberty?"
NOTE: There is still one hymn in HO&N that alludes that Jesus "God."
"Come Follow Me," No. 82.
Verse 1: "I hear my dying Savior savior say: Follow me! Come follow me!"
Verse 3: "In all thy changeful life I'll be Thy God and Giide o'er land and sea."
Hymn No. 359 from 1935 Hymnbook was not included in the succeeding 1951 edition (author unknown)
Verse 1: "Hearken to the earnest pleadings of the Holy Trinity
"Who will go for us" with tidings of sweet rest and liberty?
Souls are perishing by the millions with no ray of hope to cheer,
"Who will go for us," and tell them of the One to serve and fear.
Corrections made to align hymns more with exclusivist doctrine:
WAS No. 2- "Jesus Only is our message"
NOW No. 10 - "Jesus Now and Jesus Ever"
This hymn was originally written by an Outsider, Albert Simpson, who died in 1919. The hymn is now public domain, allowing changes to text to be legal. Was this hymn possibly changed to "Jesus Now and Jesus Ever," because there is a group called "Jesus Only?" Interesting that the location of the word "only" is changed in each verse; and the title and chorus were both changed so any reference to "Jesus Only" was deleted. The hymn now says that Jesus is: our only message; our only Saviour; our only power; our only Master. Is there a difference in meaning between (1) Jesus ONLY is our ... AND Jesus is our only ...? YES! "Jesus ONLY" places the emphasis solely on Jesus, or on Jesus only. The new wording emphasizes the beliefs of the singer--Jesus is OUR only ... The new wording carries out the theme of the worker's message, which is Jesus PLUS the 2x2 way; rather than Jesus ONLY.
Significant changes were made to words in some of the hymns in the 1987 edition. Below are some examples:
"Cleansing for Me" by H. H. Booth.
WAS No. 172: "Sinful and 'black' tho the past may have been,"
NOW No. 384: "Sinful and 'dark' tho the past may have been."
"Not unto men I Labor"
WAS printed in hymn Leaflet:
"I know the heart is sinful, none dares to trust his own,
Or should we trust another for wrong may lurk unknown.
He only doth walk wisely, can be assured of right,
Who with his eyes on Jesus is walking in the Light."
NOW No. 325:
"I know the heart is sinful, none dareth trust his own;
Tis not in man that walketh, to guide his steps alone."
Hymn No. 335 – "No East or West" by Sandy Scott
"In Christ there is no east or west, In Him no south or north;
'Tis one, the Shepherd's sacred flock, Though scattered o'er the earth.
In Christ His people ev'rywhere Their sweet communion find
In unison, their hearts as one, God's tender mercies bind.
As brothers, sisters, of one faith, Whate'er their tongue or race,
United stand, from bondage free, True monuments of grace.
Forth from the corners of the earth, When sounds the clarion call,
The Bride of Christ shall gathered be To Him, their All in all."
Other hymnals: "In Christ There is No East or West" by John Oxenham 1852-1941
"In Christ there is no east or west, In him no south or north;
But one great fellowship of love Throughout the whole wide earth.
In him shall true hearts everywhere Their high communion find;
His service is the golden cord Close binding all mankind.
Join Hands, then, brothers of the faith, Whate'er your race may be.
Who serves my Father as a son is surely kin to me.
In Christ now meet both east and west, In him meet south and north;
All Christly souls are one in him Throughout the whole wide earth."
"I Love My Master" by Mary Lindley
Original WAS: "Let my pierced ear show....."
NOW No. 320: "Let my marked ear show the choice I have made".
(see copies of sheet music distributed)
Wouldn't want anyone to get the idea they approved of pierced ears!
Other significant changes were the hymns that were omitted from the new bookâpossibly because of these phrases or concepts they embodied.
No. 2: "All our righteousness He gives us"
No. 10: "Jesus Died for Sinners" - Hymn written by Edward Cooney omitted which was sung to the tune of "Onward Christian Soldiers."
No. 34: "He suffered in the sinner's stead" (substitution)
No. 38: "They who believe on His name shall rejoice" (saved by believing only)
No. 99: "His great salvation and life eternal He offers free to all" (salvation is a free gift)
No. 102: "Who died that we might live, Who lives that we might with him reign" (lived to die--not to be example/pattern)
No. 204: "Thou savest those that on thee call" ("save" is present tense)
No. 239: "Cease not to worship the Father and Son, The Holy Spirit, and these Three are One." Chorus - "I will not cease to worship Him, My savior and my God" (holy trinity and Jesus as God)
No. 279: "Or blood sheltered safe, confide thee In the glory of his grace." (eternal security)
No. 275: "His forever only His who the Lord and me shall part?" (eternal security)
No. 296: "That nothing can untwine Thy life from mine." (eternal security)
