- Description:
- This 1915 Blue Mountains Edition samples from the full-length Alexander's Hymns No. 3 published by Fleming H. Revel later that year. The volume consists of songs that editor Charles McCallon Alexander (1867–1920) popularized during evangelism tours with Presbyterian preacher John Wilbur Cadman and on campaigns for the Pocket Testament League founded by his wife, Helen Cadbury Alexander. Alexander's Hymns No. 3 is a gospel collection featuring music and text intended for the large-scale urban revivals at which Alexander served as a singing evangelist. Though he enjoyed an international career before retiring to England in 1918, Alexander named his Philadelphia-based Blue Mountains Publishing Company after the mountain range near his childhood home in Blount County, Tennessee.
