Cantor Cristão Igreja Batista

Singer Christian was the second hymnal of Brazilian evangelicals.

It was published in 1891 and its first version contained only 16 hymns.

Edits succeeded, always being added to new hymns.

In 1921 came the 17th edition of the hymnal, already with 571 hymns, 102 of which were authored or translation of Solomon Luiz Ginsburg.

Three years later, in 1924, the hymnal went out the primera time with music, because until then contained only the letters with the hymns.

Since Solomon Luiz Ginsburg edited Worship in 1891, many others have collaborated.

William Edwin Entzminger (72 songs), Henry Maxwell Wright (61 songs), Manoel Avelino de Souza (29 songs) and Ricardo Pitrowsky (23 songs) are the most letters or translations made in the current Worship.

The 54th edition was the last made by JUERP and is today used and marketed.

In 1991 JUERP released Hymns for Christian Worship (HCC) which also makes significant part of the Brazilian evangelical hymnody today.

It is essential to recognize the leading role of Worship in the history of Protestants in Brazil, because it was, and is, without doubt, the most popular hymnal of his time, precisely because it contains hymns characteristic of his time.

This value, of course, should also be given to "Psalms and Hymnos", "Hymnário Evangelical" and "Lyra CHRISTA" because these hymnals were the first Protestant publications in the area of ​​music and guided for many years throughout this segment.
