Excerpt from The Christian Psalmist, or Watts' Psalms and Hymns: With Copious Selections From Other Sources; The Whole Carefully Revised and Arranged, With Directions for Musical Expression
This work has not been undertaken without mature de liberation; nor has its completion been the offspring of a series of desultory efforts. The work has been several years in a course of preparation and the Compilers, providentially located within'a few doors of each other, have had every advantage of mutual consultation which the subject required. How they have succeeded in their undertaking must be left to the public decision.

Excerpt from The Christian Psalmist, or Watts' Psalms and Hymns: With Copious Selections From Other Sources; The Whole Carefully Revised and Arranged, With Directions for Musical Expression
This principle, though extensively disregarded even by pious musicians, is just as obvious in its application to this subject, as it is in reference to pulpit oratory, or social prayer. It is all a mistake to suppose that music is a spe cies of mental mechanism, which will secure its own ends on the mere principle of laborious accuracy or tasteful execution. Singers are moral agents, accountable to the Searcher of hearts for the feelings, and motives, and habits, which they cultivate and call into exercise, within the house of God. It is a solemn business to be engaged in the work of angels and seraphs delightful, indeed, to the heart of intelligent, pious susceptibility, but awfully hazardous to the soul of the thoughtless, the irreverent, and the profane. There are worthy men in the Christian connexion who think little of this whole matter. Even among professors of religion, there are choristers and teachers who seem to have almost their whole attention directed away from the spiritual claims of edification. But they are fundamentally wrong.
