"My Lutheran Hymnal" - Proof Copies Are Here
I decided to call it My Lutheran Hymnal so that people would ask, "Have you seen My Lutheran Hymnal?"
The book (words only) is arranged by era and author, so the reader can study all of Luther's hymns together, in TLH order, and all of Gerhardt's hymns.
Do you like one particular Lutheran hymn-writer? All of his hymns are together.
I consider all great hymns before the Reformation to be Lutheran, so they are included. I also included a section on Pietistic hymns, to help people become more knowledgeable about Pietism, which is the modern source of UOJ.
