The Redemption Hymnal is a red-covered hymnbook containing 800 evangelical hymns, first published by the Elim Publishing House in London, in 1951. The hymnal is strongly associated with the emergence of the Pentecostal movement in the United Kingdom.[1][2] The preface proclaimed: "A hymnal is now proffered that combines rich devotional hymns in abundance with stirring revival hymns that present the gospel in all its depth, winsomeness and simplicity." The hymnal was traditionally used by classical Pentecostal churches.[3]
Several hundred hymns in the collection go back to the Sacred Songs and Solos collected by Ira D. Sankey,[4] with the list of older hymns including "O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing" by Charles Wesley, "Just as I Am" by Charlotte Elliott, and "Abide with Me" by Henry Francis Lyte.
Although revised as the New Redemption Hymnal in 1986, the original collection was republished in 2006 by Rickfords Hill Publishing.
