Recognizing the need for bilingual hymnal and service materials within Korean Presbyterian Congregations, the 207th General Assembly (1995) of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) mandated the creation of a resource to meet the needs of local congregations and to promote authentic Korean compositions and traditional Korean tunes. This new Korean-English hymnal is now available as a worship resource for intergenerational and ecumenical use. The hymnal contains 360 complete bilingual hymns, featuring both contemporary and traditional hymn tunes, and is an excellent resource for Korean- and English-speaking congregations. Presbyterian liturgies, including a selection of services from the 1993 Book of Common Worship; Morning and Evening Prayers; an extensive selection of psalms for responsive reading, together with optional sung responses; and the widely used Revised Common Lectionary (1992) are also included.
