Excerpt from Book of Church Services: With Orders of Worship, Prayers, and Other Aids to Devotion
In nearly every branch of the Christian church there is a growing desire to make the service of worship more suitable and effective. It need not be more formal, but it may well be more beautiful and attractive. The order in which the different parts of these services are arranged proceeds from Aspiration to Adora tion and Praise; from Praise to Prayer, from Prayer to Reflection, culminating in Inspira tion and Consecration. There should be in the service a nobility of expression and a fitness of phrase which satisfy mind and heart, for, as has been well said, the worship of the Church should represent the very ideal of thought and feeling and language.
