The Psalter

To provide a uniform metrical version of the Psalms for North America’s churches, and to win back lost territory for the cause of Psalmody, a bold initiative was launched by the Untied Presbyterian Church of North America in 1893. Representatives of nine denominations in the Untied States and Canada worked together to produce a new metrical version first published in 1905. Heavily reworked, the final text was published as the Joint Committee’s Version of 1909. Furnished with a rich array of tunes, The Psalter was finally published in 1912. The Christian Reformed Church adopted The Psalter in 1914 for use in its churches and bound it together with its doctrinal standards, liturgy, and church order.
