I Could Sing of Your Love Forever

The subtitle says it all: Stories Behind 100 of the World’s Most Popular Worship Songs. While several books along this line have been published, a Ph.D. hymnologist writes this one. Lindsay Terry conducted most of these interviews with songwriters himself through the years, yielding short, often gripping accounts of many beloved praise songs from the last couple of centuries.
For your youth with a knack for history or music, this will be a fun volume. The book includes devotional thoughts, which sometimes sound trite, and a CD with interview audio. The main content is great and definitely worth reading.
