Product Overview
Even a quick browse through a hymnal library would show that our hymnals have not always been attuned to female voices and visions. This essay explores a brief history of the inclusion of female hymn writers, composers, and subjects in hymnals and examines how women are featured in the pages of Glory to God. Specifically, author Mary Louise Bringle looks at how Glory to God showcases women of the Bible and feminine imagery, highlighting the way these images and stories are included alongside masculine imagery. In Bringle's words, "all Christians, both male and female, sons and daughters," can celebrate their faith by singing together.
