Come and Praise

Come and Praise[1] is a hymnal published by the BBC and widely used in collective worship in British schools. The hymnal was compiled by Geoffrey Marshall-Taylor with musical arrangements by Douglas Coombes, and includes well-known hymns such as “Oil in My Lamp”, “Kum Ba Yah” and “Water of Life” as well as Christmas carols and Easter hymns.[2]

Two volumes were published: Come and Praise in 1978, and Come and Praise 2 in 1988. The hymns from both volumes were published together in The Complete Come and Praise in 1990.
