Hymns from the East

Hymns from the East-Being Centos and Suggestions from the Office Books of the Holy Eastern Church is a classic religious poetry collection by John Brownlie. True hymns are sacred lyrics, and a lyric to be lyrical and heart appealing, must be _inevitable. It must be the spontaneous expression of the heart of the author--an expression which had to come. It is the latent secret of the power of true Christian hymns, for what must_be uttered will assuredly, sooner or later, find its way to some heart.
