1904 Lutheran Hymnal

[MariaRegina]

Does anyone know where one can obtain a copy of the 1904 Lutheran Hymnal which contains the Liturgy in English?

Is it available online?

Do you mean the 1911 ELH?

For example, the Synod's first English-language hymnal, the Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-Book, was prepared in 1911 and given to the Synod as a gift by the English Synod a year later when that body of English-speaking congregations joined the Synod as the newly established English District.

No, it was the 1904 Lutheran Hymnal. I had previously found information online a while back, but forgot the site. It was a Lutheran college site with a link. I recall that the Lutheran college was graced with gorgeous stained glass icons in their beautiful chapel, but I might be confused, as I was looking at a lot of Lutheran sites.

The 1904 Lutheran Hymnal has a very liberal rewriting of the liturgy and is used almost verbatim in the ICEL novus ordo as used by Catholics today. Note: This is not intended as an attack, but is historically true as about six Lutheran ministers cooperated with the Vatican in developing the Post-Vatican II new mass.

I don't think the more conservative Lutheran Churches know about the 1904 Lutheran Hymnal.

Don’t know where you can find one. But when you find one let me know. Sounds interesting.

It would be interesting to see one.

I checked my Hymnal collection, and didn't find one in English for that year. (I used to collect hymnals years back, and then ran out of space!)

I then did a little digging on the net, and didn't really find anything. Here is one chronology I did find.

You might also check www.cph.org and see if they have any. When I was at CTS they had some hymnals there and CPH runs the store.

Aria,

The Best "used" theological bookstore I've ever had the ggod fortune to see is in Pasadena. The Archives Bookshop is located at the SW corner of Washington and Hill, just north of the 210 fwy. The owner will do book searches for you, as well.

Cheers,
