Brainard's Sons.) PUBLISHERS PREFACE. Five years ago, "Pure Diamonds" was issued by this House. It was followed two years ago by "Joyful Songs," both of which have been received with marked favor by Sunday School workers through- out t'he land. Hundreds of thousands of these two works have been sold, and the demand for them is still very great. This fact demonstrates the confidence of our great army of Sunday School workers in this house. In presenting ^^ HEAVENWARD'''' we confidently claim that we have produced a collection of Songs for the Sunday School that has never been surpassed, and one that will strengthen the confidence shown our efforts in the department of Sunday School Song. Mr. James R. Murray's reputation as a writer of pure and soul-stirring hymns of praise to God, is fully sustained in his latest efforts, to be found in these pages. P. P. Bliss, who was an intimate friend and musical companion of Mr. Murray for many years, is represented in *^ HEAVENWARD'^ by many of his best and most popular sacred songs. While nearly everything in this book is new, having been prepared expressly for it, we have thought it best to insert several song-gems which are always wanted and will never wear out. Among them we would mention "Hold the Fort," "What shall the Harvest be?" "Almost Persuaded," " Your Mission," "Only an Armour Bearer," "Sweet By and By," and others, which have become universal favorites in the Sunday School and Home Circle. Particular attention is called to the this book. ^Responsive Service,''^ a new and desirable feature to be found in Among the many excellent writers who have contributed to '■^HEAVENWARD''' may be found the following : — James R. Murray, P. P. Bliss, H. R. Palmer, James G. Clark; S. M. Grannis S, W. Straub. H. E, Kimball, F. G, Spencek., J. P. Webster, Rev. J. B. Atchinson, Rev. R. R. Chope, Rev. Edward Seymour, Rev. a. a.
