If you enjoy the hymns of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, then you will enjoy Our Latter-day Hymns: The Stories and the Messages. In this volume you will find the stories of all the hymns in the 1985 LDS hymnbook, so far as those stories are known. Some of the hymns came about in ways that are quite dramatic and personal; others came into being under ordinary circumstances. And each of the more than three hundred hymns has a message all its own.

Prepared with the cooperation and assistance of the General Music Committee of the Church, this companion to the hymnbook gives brief biographies of the authors and composers of the hymns, the stories of the hymns themselves, and an account of changes that may have ocurred in the words or in the music.

Our Latter-day Hymns gives insight into the beliefs and history, hopes and fears of the people who sing these hymns. Church members who have music callings as well as those who simply enjoy singing will find this volume fascinating and informative.","variants":[{"id":30054,"sku":"5014286","weight":"0.0","height":null,"width":null,"depth":null,"deletedAt":null,"isMaster":true,"productId":69799,"costPrice":"7.01","position":1,"costCurrency":"USD","trackInventory":true,"taxCategoryId":2,"updatedAt":"2023-05-24T15:17:17.954-06:00","isbn":"9781606410684","upc":"9781606410684","itemType":"SHORTRUN","status":"ACTIVE","usePoints":true,"earnPoints":true,"msrp":"29.99","salable":true,"hide":false,"popularity":20,"shippingSurchargeTypeId":null,"createdAt":null,"oracleBuyerName":"Terra Collette","oracleVendor":"DESERET BOOK COMPANY","oracleDepartmentId":"2800","oracleClassId":"40","oracleBuyerId":"66","oracleClassName":"INSPIRATION","oracleDepartmentName":"INSPIRATION","oracleClass":"40","oracleDept":"2800","oracleHold":null,"erpSalable":false,"erpRequiresStockToSell":true,"erpVersion":0,"erpUpdatedAt":"2023-02-09T05:16:33.000-07:00","acumaticaBrand":"DB","erpCreatedAt":"2021-07-29 22:52:39 UTC","optionValues":[{"id":4,"name":"Paperback","presentation":"Paperback","optionTypeName":"Book Format","optionTypeId":1,"optionTypePresentation":"Book Format"}]},{"id":30352,"sku":"5087800","weight":"0.0","height":null,"width":null,"depth":null,"deletedAt":null,"isMaster":false,"productId":69799,"costPrice":"0.0","position":2,"costCurrency":"USD","trackInventory":true,"taxCategoryId":4,"updatedAt":"2023-05-20T17:02:53.721-06:00","isbn":"9781609085551","upc":"9781609085551","itemType":"DGTLDWNLD","status":"ACTIVE","usePoints":true,"earnPoints":true,"msrp":"29.99","salable":true,"hide":false,"popularity":2,"shippingSurchargeTypeId":null,"createdAt":null,"oracleBuyerName":"DSD Buyer","oracleVendor":"DESERET BOOK COMPANY","oracleDepartmentId":"6800","oracleClassId":"54","oracleBuyerId":"3972","oracleClassName":"INSPIRATION","oracleDepartmentName":"DIGITAL DOWNLOADS","oracleClass":null,"oracleDept":null,"oracleHold":null,"erpSalable":false,"erpRequiresStockToSell":true,"erpVersion":0,"erpUpdatedAt":"2023-02-09T05:16:33.000-07:00","acumaticaBrand":"DB","erpCreatedAt":"2021-07-21 17:33:28 UTC","optionValues":[{"id":3,"name":"eBook","presentation":"eBook","optionTypeName":"Book Format","optionTypeId":1,"optionTypePresentation":"Book Format"}]}],"additionalDetails":"","producers":[{"id":1023,"parentId":1,"position":0,"name":"Karen Lynn Davidson","permalink":"author/karen-lynn-davidson","taxonomyId":1,"lft":538,"rgt":539,"iconFileName":null,"iconContentType":null,"iconFileSize":null,"iconUpdatedAt":null,"description":"Karen Lynn Davidson earned a Ph.D. from the University of Southern California.
