JOB THE CHURCH AND THE HOME: WITH A SELECTION OF PSALMS. PORTLAND COLLECTION. BOSTON: UNIVERSALIST PUBLISHING HOUSE, No. 37 CORNHILL. 1870. Nov. 1893 From the Library of Røv, S. LONGFELLOW. (83) BV 450 .B6 1870 cop. 2 Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1865, by In the Clerk's Office of the District Court for the District of Massachusetts. PREFACE. THE character and variety of this Selection — embrac ing, as it does, not only a large number of those standard hymns, which, from their religious fervor, beauty, or familiarity, have become indispensable aids to worship in all Christian Protestant congregations, but also many of the finest hymns and lyrics of modern times, not a few of which have been written since the publication of any other Hymn Book-is such, it is believed, as will commend the volume to those congregations which feel the want of a Hymn Book. Some of the best minds of our Church have been engaged in its compilation. And the hope is entertained that all the congregations that may adopt it, will find it a minister of aspiration, strength, and comfort, a help to them in their Christian - work.
