Hymns of Praise
Pamela Kennedy. Ideals Publications, $24.95 (160pp) ISBN 978-0-8249-4126-0
Hymns of Faith and Inspiration proved to be a great success for Ideals, so the inspirational publisher is following it up with Hymns of Praise, a coffee-table book that features the usual full-color photographs of natural scenes. Pamela Kennedy offers historical explanations of hymns such as ""Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus,"" ""Jesus Loves Me"" and ""Shall We Gather at the River."" The book is predictable, but if the formula works, why change it? Given the number of great hymns from which to choose, there may be many more installments. ($24.95 160p ISBN 0-8249-4126-8)
