Hymnbooks of the Church of Scotland
Decisions concerning the conduct of public worship in the Church of Scotland are entirely at the discretion of the parish minister. As a result, a wide variety of musical resources are used. However, at various times in its history, the General Assembly has commissioned volumes of psalms and hymns for use by congregations.
==Scottish Psalter (1564)==
In 1556 the first Anglo-Genevan Psalter was published for the use of John Knox' congregation and contained 51 psalms. It became the parent of the first Scottish Psalter of 1564. It accepted the Anglo-Genevan Psalter with most of its tunes, completed it on the same principles and included no hymns. The text of this Psalter expresses the spirit of the original without undue pains to render the text literally. There were 30 metres in all. While only the melodies of the tunes were printed part singing was popular judged by the four-part singing of Psalm 124 that welcomed John Durie back to Edinburgh from exile in 1582. Ninety-eight psalms were set to common metre, 10 to long Metre, 6 to short metre and 4 to long metre (6 lines). There were 26 metres for the other 32 psalms. Some editions of this Psalter printed in 1575 or later included up to 10 other pieces, but according to Miller Patrick the extra pieces may indicate no more than the printer's personal sympathies or the degree of some influential pressure behind him. They were not used in public worship.
