Trying to locate the name of a hymnal from no earlier than 1986

You are here

I am looking for a hymnal that was lost in a fire recently. The copy we had was missing its covers and introduction and we never knew what it was, but we loved it! All I have is a list of a few hymns that were in it, and part of one page that we found after the fire. If anyone can help me locate the name of this hymnal, I would really appreciate it!
These are the hymns I know were in it:

  • As the Deer (Marty Nystrom)
  • My Peace (Keith Routledge)
  • Faithful Men (?)
  • The page I found I believe contains the hymn “To Bless Your Heart” (Maranatha) on one side and has the following copyright information: “C 1985 and this arr. C 1986 Chalace Music All Rights Reserved, etc.” The other side has these lyrics, which I haven't been able to match: “…joy, and His chosen ones with… singing. The Lord has led forth His people… joy, and His chosen ones with sing-…” Unfortunately more of it is unreadable. The copyright on the mystery hymn says, “C1982 and this arr. C1986 Springtide/Word Music (UK), (a div. of Word (UK) Ltd.) All Rights Reserved, etc.”

    The hymnal was spiral bound as well.

    Thank you! If anyone has any ideas of where else to search or ask, please let me know!

i am very familiar with all the songs or psalms as they called them although there has been many hymnals over the years the church of England most likely has many of the original copies but some of the verses were taken out as some of these were called forgooton books and years one of these is Cradle toll Ministry by Elizabeth Sudow . i hope that helps but you also may be able to seek practical resources for churches in both Canada and the united kingdom or states of America   https://www.prcli.org/
