evangelical hymns

Protestant worship music

Evangelical hymns are religious songs associated with Protestant Christianity, particularly traditions emphasizing personal conversion and biblical authority.

They tend toward emotional directness and accessible language rather than formal liturgical style: The congregation sang evangelical hymns about being washed in the blood of the Lamb.

Many date from 18th- and 19th-century revival movements.
