If you enjoyed our Catholic Songs for Children, but are looking for hymns children can sing at Mass, this is just what you've been hoping for!

Originally published in 1927 by the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, The Child's Book of Hymns is a delightful collection of devotional songs written especially for little voices. With verses drawn from such beloved Catholic authors as Father Faber and Father Abram Ryan, as well as many of those found in Mother Mary Loyola's Little Children's Prayer Book, these hymns give children a beautiful way to express their love for Our Lord in song.

From simple acts of faith, hope, and love to tender hymns of preparation and thanksgiving for Holy Communion, the collection combines childlike simplicity with genuine reverence. Set to lovely, accessible melodies by Sister Mary Editha, B.V.M., the verses are easy for children to learn and remember, making this a particularly valuable resource for First Communion classes.

And there's no need to be an accomplished pianist! We've provided free downloadable MP3 accompaniments to help children learn and sing the hymns, even when no one is available to play for them. These will automatically be added to your cart when you purchase the book.

9" x 7.5"       paperback        64 pages

NOTE: Some of the hymns in this collection also appear in our My Picture Book of First Communion, making these two books lovely companions for children preparing to receive Our Lord for the first time.
