Redemption Songs: 1000 Hymns & Choruses
Synthetic audio, Automated braille
Summary
This is a collection of 1,000 hymns, words only, many originating in the 19th century, projecting a life of holiness and sacrifice but also joy. More than 600 hymns have refrains which are often expressions of praise and thanks to… God. As with other hymnbooks on Bookshare, this has DAISY markup which allows you to move from hymn to hymn. In a BRF file, Bookshare software creates a lengthy table of contents followed by the text of the hymn book.
