Starting with the New Zealand Supplement to With One Voice in 1982, the New Zealand Hymnbook Trust has worked faithfully to make the best contemporary, local hymns available to churches and choirs in our country. Their key music books Alleluia Aotearoa (1993); Carol Our Christmas (1996); Faith Forever Singing (2000) and Hope Is Our Song (2009) are all still popular and remain in print today. In this Companion, world-renowned New Zealand hymn composer, Colin Gibson, tells the stories of how the hymns in these books came to be written and of the tunes to which they have been set, alongside biographies of the hymnwriters and composers. Ministers, preachers, worship leaders, church musicians and choir members will find a wealth of material in the Companion to entertain and inform them, and to share with their congregations. For ease of reference the Companion includes indexes of Hymn Names and First Lines, Scripture sources and Tune Names. For the first time, Gibson has compiled a Finding List of New Zealand Hymn Writing which records the many hymnbooks and other publications that hymns by New Zealand composers have appeared in, both in this country and overseas. Other appendices include a list of publications in which our hymnwriters and hymns are discussed, and a brief history of the Hymnbook Trust. Knowing The Song Review by Rev Gary Clover, March 2022. "Otago University Professor-Emeritus Colin Gibson's Knowing The Song is a huge gift to New Zealand's choral, cultural and church life. I recently awoke to Robyn Jaquiery, compere of Radio New Zealand's "Hymns on Sunday," in an early morning broadcast lauding its praises for its information. Beginning with Thomas Bracken's 1877 publication of "God of Nations" (today New Zealand's own national anthem), and "Te Harinui," Willow Mackay's perennially popular Christmas carol of 1957, through to the present-day hymns and sacred songs of world-renowned composers like Shirley Erena Murray, Colin Gibson, himself, and David and Dale Garratt, there has been since the early 1980s an explosion of quality New Zealand hymn writing, invaluable for locally-grounded congregational worship. The Hymnbook Trust's productions have been in the forefront of publishing this creative output. With numerous indexes for 506 alphabetically-listed hymns, their first lines, scriptural sources, and tunes; a "Finding List of New Zealand Hymn Writing" and composers in hymn books and other publications in New Zealand and overseas; also, appendices listing publications in which New Zealand hymn writers and hymns are discussed, and a brief history of the Hymnbook Trust, this companion to the Trust's publications is already an indispensable source of hitherto inaccessible information."
