PREFACE ENLARGED EDITION. The Hymns, Original and Selected, which are interspersed through this Edition, appear before the Religions Public with no higher ambition than of being, in some measure, of the humble and happy FAMIL,Y, which, through the astonishing goodness of the God of Providence and Grace, have met the fa vourable acceptance of more than TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND PERSONS, chiefly in this country ; saying nothing of the numerous Editions through which the Work has passed in America.* This circumstance, • Just after the first edition of this Preface was printed, I received a pleasi : ; letter from Philadelphia, informing me of tbe good acceptance of the Selection in America, and of the IV PREFACE. unless " myself is to myself unknown," I can- , not — I dare not presume to mention, - but with deep humility, and with unfeigned gra titude, in His presence with whom are. the issues of' all our endeavours to promote his glory. And should he be pleased, in his infinite condescension, yet to grant it a portion of the gracious notice with which he has to this day honoured the former Editions, his -glory shall be mingled with every Ilosanna of the remain ing station of the Wilderness; and then, with all the Hallelujahs of Saints and Angels in the Land of Songs, for ever. glorious work of the blessed Spirit in the American Churches. The following is an Extract : — " Your Selection of Hymns, apart from the Arrangement, has been dispersed through our States ; — about ,ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND. " It will afford you pleasure to know that Mr. Clark's stereotype edition of your Watts Arranged, and Rippon's Hymns, meets with such acceptance, and has so great circula tion in this country. Mr. C. has just printed, in one volume, 4,700 copies of both. "There are very great revivals of religion in numerous parts of the country among almost all the various denomina tions of Christians, but especially among the Methodists, Presbyterians, and Baptists. Large additions have been made to the latter during the present year. One Association in Kentucky, in the year ending in August, has received an accession of more than 2,600 Members. One Minister, in Georgia, has baptized more than 300 this year. The number of regular Calvinistic Baptists, in the United States, is about 275,900. The number of Churches 3,900, and of Ministers 2,800, PREFACE. V And now, in the language of a former Pre face, With all the solemnity of an entire De dication, I commit the volume to Thy care, patronage, and special blessing, O thou infi nitely beautiful and bountiful Being ! to whom I am, of all the sons of Adam, peculiarly ill" debted ; beseeching thee, for the sake of my crucified and exalted Redeemer, to grant, " That however weak and contemptible this " work may seem in the eyes of the children " of the world, and however imperfect it really " may be, as well as the author of it unworthy ; " it may, nevertheless, live before thee, and, " through a divine power, be mighty " to lessen the miseries and to increase the holiness and bliss of multitudes, " in distant places, and " in generations yet to come ! Impute it not " O God, as a culpable ambition, if I desire " that, whatever becomes of my name, this "work may be propagated far abroad; that *' it may reach to those who are yet unborn, " and teach them thy name and thy praise, " when the author has long dwelt in the dust; " that so, when he shall appear before thee in " the great day of final accounts, his joy may " be increased, and his trown brightened, by " numbers before unknown to each other and " to him ! But if this petition be too great to " be granted to one who. pretends no claim to " hope for being favoured with the least, give a 3 vi PREFACE. " him to be, in thine almighty hand, the blessed " instrument of converting and saving one soul ; " and if it be but one, and that the meanest " and weakest of all the human race, though " it should be amidst a thousand disappoint- " ments with respect to others, yet it shall be "the subject of immortal songs of praise to " thee, O blessed God, for and by every soul " whom, through the blood of Jesus, and the " grace of thy Spirit, thou hast saved ; and " everlasting honours shall be ascribed to the " Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, " by the innumerable company of angels, and " by the general assembly, and the church of " the first-born in- heaven.

M. Anderson "Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation." Heb. 9:28. A most momentous event occurred in human history when the only begotten Son of God was once offered to bear the sins of many. His marvelous manifestation to redeem us will be equaled only by the supernal sunburst and ineffable splendor of His second appearing to receive us unto Himself at the climatic consummation of this age of the gospel. Christ's vicarious suffering on the middle cross gave Him the victor's garland and the monarch's diadem. It is written, "He must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet." II Cor. 15:25. Christ, the mighty Conqueror, is now seated on the mediatorial throne at the right hand of the Majesty on high, His crown radiant with the rays of the unsetting Sun of eternal revelation, and His scepter of sovereign righteousness sweeping the circumference of the whole created universe of God.

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • The Expositor's Bible
    the; BOOK OF EXODUS BY THE RIGHT REV. 3- A. CHADWICK, D.D., Bishop of Derry AUTHOR OF "THE GOSPEL OF ST. MARK," ETC NEW YORK C. ARMSTRONG AND SON 3 and 5 West Eighteenth Street London: Hodder and Stoughton 1903 PREFACE. MUCH is now denied or doubted, within the Church itself, concerning the Book of Exodus, which was formerly accepted with confidence by all Christians. But one thing can neither be doubted nor denied. Jesus Christ did certainly treat this book, taking it as He found it, as possessed of spiritual authority, a sacred scripture. He taught His disciples to regard it thus, and they did so. Therefore, however widely His followers may differ about its date and origin, they must admit the right of a Christian teacher to treat this book, taking it as he finds it, as a sacred scripture and invested with spiritual authority. It is the legitimate subject of exposition in the Church. Such work this volume strives, howler imper- fectly, to perform. Its object is to edify in the first place, and also, but in the second place, to inform. Nor has the author consciously shrunk from saying what seemed to him proper to be said because the utterance would be unwelcome, either to the latest critical theory, or to the last sensational gospel of an hour. But sines controversv has not been sought, b PREFACE. although exposition has not been suppressed when it carried weapons, by far the greater part of the volume appeals to all who accept their Bible as, in any true sense, a gift from God.
