It has been released in two editions (both of which are used in churches today) and is published by Great Commission Publications, a joint project between the Orthodox Presbyterian Church and the Presbyterian Church in America.
The 1961 hymnal was originally compiled by the Orthodox Presbyterian Church in 1961[1] as a hymnbook that would include traditional hymns as well as musical arrangements of the Psalms suitable for Reformed worship.
This version includes responsive readings from all 150 Psalms and The Westminster Confession of Faith.
[citation needed] In 1995, the Trinity Hymnal (Baptist Edition) was published and is identical to the 1961 hymnal, other than an addition of 42 Psalter selections, and a few changes related to doctrine.
Hymns supporting infant baptism were replaced with ones about believer's baptism, and the Westminster Confession of Faith was replaced by the 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith.
