The Trinity Hymnal is a Christianhymnal written and compiled both by and for those from a Presbyterian background. It has been released in two editions (both of which are used in churches today) and is published by Great Commission Publications, a joint project between the Orthodox Presbyterian Church and the Presbyterian Church in America.
A Baptist Edition also exists for the use of Particular Baptist congregations.
Versions
The 1961 hymnal was originally compiled by the Orthodox Presbyterian Church in 1961[1] as a hymnbook that would include traditional hymns as well as musical arrangements of the Psalms suitable for Reformed worship.
The 1990 hymnal is official (but not required) in the Presbyterian Church in America and Orthodox Presbyterian Church,[2][3] and is also approved by denominations such as the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church. This version includes responsive readings from all 150 Psalms and The Westminster Confession of Faith. [citation needed]
