Exclusive Brethren - Hymns and Music

Hymns and Music

Hymns are a vital part of the worship of Exclusive Brethren. Most branches of Exclusive Brethren use one of the many editions of the Little Flock Hymn Book. All editions come from the same source: J.N.Darby's hymnbook of 1881 which drew on earlier work by George V. Wigram.

Most singing is a capella though some meetings might use an organ or piano in the gospel preaching or for ministry meetings.

A recording of singing at Park Street (Raven/Taylor/Hales Brethren) can be found on open source audio

Famous quotes containing the words hymns and, hymns and/or music:

    What wondrous love is this
    That caused the Lord of bliss
    To bear the dreadful curse for my soul
    —Unknown. “What Wondrous Love is this!” L. 3-5, Dupuy’s Hymns and Spiritual Songs (1811)

    Whether, if you yield not to your father’s choice,
    You can endure the livery of a nun,
    For aye to be in shady cloister mewed,
    To live a barren sister all your life,
    Chanting faint hymns to the cold fruitless moon.
    Thrice blessed they that master so their blood
    To undergo such maiden pilgrimage.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    O I shall hear skull skull,
    Hear your lame music,
    Believe music rejects undertaking,
    Limps back.
    Owen Dodson (b. 1914)
