These hymns were written by John Newton in Olney, England and were originally published in 1779. This collection includes John Newtonâ€™s contribution of 281 hymns. Some favorite hymns by John Newton are â€œAmazing Grace,â€ â€œGlorious Things of Thee are Spoken,â€ and â€œHow Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds.â€ To be faithful to John Newton's original intentions, this edition is uniform with the wording, punctuation, contractions and stanza formatting of the first edition "Olney Hymns" published by W. Oliver in 1779. Bible references are full text. Please note: The Olney Hymns (1779) were originally published without music. This edition is uniform with the first edition and contains no music. In those days hymns were sung using many different tunes that had the same meter. Music wasnâ€™t commonly published in hymnbooks until well into the 1800â€™s.
