PREFACE.

J[t is not intended that this Collec-

tion of Gaelic Hymnsj should entirely super-

sede the common version of the Psalms

of David, which is used in the Highlands,

Many of those Psalms are much calculated

for exciting the stronger passions of the

mind', and enlivening the spirit of true devotif

on ; \vhile,on the other hand, many seem moresuited • tor the worship of the age underwhicli they were penned,than of that more glo-

rious di.^pciisation under which we live. Weare called now, in a very peculiar manner, to

magniiy the Lord, because '' he hath triumph-ed gloriously," because *^ his right hand, andhis holy arm hath gotten him the victory."

Is it not therefore desirable, that this shouldbe done in the plain,but impressive language oftlic New Testament, and not in tliat \\Iiich

was adapted to a shadowy dispensation?

Besides, many of the Psalms, from this verycircumstance, nunt a]>pear ambiguous to the

great majority of every congregation, andare, on tins accouni, less fit lo be sung by aChristian Assembly.The truth of these remarks seems to have

been generally admitted, and even vindicated,by many whoee judgements are worthy ofrespect. Dr. ^^mith, in the preface to his

uew Gaelic vtrsion, (a work which merit*

^'J TREFACE.

a much warmer reception than i^ has hi-*

thcrto found,) observes that ^' Many of theni

(the Psalms) are very unsuitable to Chris-

tian worship, and some of them altogether

imintelligible to plain illiterate men.—In aprose version of the Scripturer-;, it may beproper to render every word literally; but it

ought to be considered whether many passages

that appear liarsh, may not be capable of a

softer rendering. At any rate, in a book of

Christian devotion, there should certainly be

no room for curses: and as no metrical version

can be exactlylitcral, so neither is it to be

wisiied that it should, at theexpence of cither

pei'^picuity or devolio!!."

But, granting to the present version of the

Fsidms all those excellencies v.hicli its most

sanguine admirers have attributed to it, still,

it is manifestly obvious, that a Collection of

ifymns, drav.n from the numerous portions of

Scripture, which arc at least equally calcula-

t«d to impress, to comfort, and to enliven, as

the Psalms are, is very much wanted in the

Highlands. The Assembly's Paraphrases have,

no doubt, been iseful in this way. But any

thing like a ccmplete Collection, liowever

much desired by many, has hitherto been

unknown in these parts.

In such a Collection, it is desirable, that

theie le no Hymns admitted, wliich all the

ciiildren of (iod cannot readily agree in sing-

ij)g,-—that at first bight they thould appea?

PREFACE VÌÌ

eonj^onant to the doctrines of Scripture;—

-

'tbat they breath that Spirit of" deep repent-

ance, and humble joy, which it becomes sin-

ful men to indulge before tlie Most K-igh ;

that they should give such a view of our fallen

condition, and of the riches of redeeminggrace, as to excite our warmest affections,

and call forth our sweetest notes. These\'ery impoitant objects, have been constantly

held in view in selectinci the following

Hymns, Flow far the translator has succeed

ed, is left to be derermined by the Churcheswho ma}^ use them.A number of the Assembly's Paraphrases

are fiere inserted, with some parts altered,

and others omitted. There fire a few also

from Dr. Smitli's new version of the Gaelic

Psalms. As for the rest, they arc taken froma variety of Collections. They may with

greater propiiety be called imitations of the

original, than translations from it; as it wasdeemed, of far greater importance to preserve

tl:e spirit and energy of a Hymn, than to ma-nifest a fondness to be hteral in point ofla!ì2;uage.

It is only necessary to add, that perspi-

cuity in the style, and smoothness in the

verso, have been both attCiided to. Still,

however, the translator is sensible that defi-

ciencies in both may appear. But let it

be recollected, that this Collection of Hymnsiviis not intended fof the critic, but for th«

VIU PREFACEliiunble Cliristian. It is surely better to-

supply so great alack, though in an imperfect

manner, than do nothing at all, from a con-viction that we cannot do every thing. Hewill rejoice to see a more complete Collection

presented to his beloved Pellow-Christiana,

and Countrymen. That the Collection nowoffered to the public may, in the mean time,

assist the children of Sioii to sing the praises

of him who hath loved tlieni, and washedthem irom their sins in his own blood, is hi*

supreme object and ardent prayer.^—MayOod crown this erFort to s^jrve his cause,

^ith his richest blesiiina!
