One year on from its launch at Wesley Chapel in London,

The greatest number of sales have been for the well-received
Words edition. Other sales have been for the Music, Large Print,
Electronic Words, and Organ editions.
"We are delighted with the take-up of Singing the Faith, in all
its forms," said Michael Addison, Sales and Marketing Director of
the publisher Hymns Ancient & Modern. "It is clear that
Methodists, and many others, are keen to embrace the continually
evolving tradition of hymn singing that is central to the life of
Methodism, and are anxious to explore the new treasures to be found
within this exciting publication."
The Revd Dr Mark Wakelin, President of the Methodist Conference,
adds, "This beautifully presented hymn book is transforming worship
through the sheer diversity of the hymns and songs contained within
its pages. Singing the Faith is the one hymn and song book you have
to have."
