The hymnal arrived in perfect condition, had been carefully packed. Most of my favorite hymns are contained therein and I enjoy playing them on my new piano and re-learning the verses of my past.Sharing the hymnal with Mother, Sunday mornings, with my father in the pulpit in his robe and vestment--these are 'comfort' memories evoked by this book. The only one of my favorites I couldn't find was The Old Rugged Cross. One of the top advantages of this hymnal is that in the back there's a complete listing of First Lines of each hymn, in case one's forgotten the song title.Thanks, Amazon, for linking me with the seller of the Pilgrim Hymnal.
