In this first volume of the two-volume set of choral stanzas, you will find settings of 80 hymns.

Through composed to align with the texts and tunes, this is a collection that could be easily adapted to work with many denominational hymnals.

Benson, James Biery, Marilyn Biery, Donald Busarow, Michael D. Costello, Bradley Ellingboe, Rick Erickson, Robert Buckley Farlee, Benjamin D. Harlan, John Helgen, Zebulon M. Highben, Robert A.
