Selections from The Army and Navy Hymnal, Volume 2


Read by LibriVox Volunteers

This collection was a joint effort by the chaplains of the US Army and the Navy to meet the needs of divine services conducted in the Army and Navy, and for, in the compilers' words, "the upbuilding of patriotic citizenship." These 20 hymns from the book were selected by the singers. (Summary by Kevin Davidson)
