A Hundred Thousand Welcomes

- New
- Paperback
- first
A collection of Irish melodies, with texts, from the American Catholic Hymnbook.
This booklet is 9 x 12", saddle-stiched, printed on high-quality, glossy paper, needed because of the art work. A Hundred Thousand Welcomes is only 24 pages long. This collection, with its music, illustrations and full-color art, can stand on its own as a book of much interest. People of Irish or celtic heritage would find this collection valuable. For this reason, A Hundred Thousand Welcomes could be used as a supplementary songbook in any parish. Ideally, however, this booklet would serve as a help to introducing the American Catholic Hymnbook to the community.
The booklet begins with a short essay, "Why Is There a Lack of Irish Hymns?" In other words, why don't we have more Irish tunes in our normal Sunday liturgy? Eleven hymns and metrical Psalms then follow, each with full text, music, and commentary. The celtic heritage introduced here is surely something worth fostering and promoting.
Please note that this item is a 24-page brochure, as in the photo above; it is not the American Catholic Hymnbook itself. This is a brochure about the hymnbook.
