I have a small booklet, lent to me by a sister in my assembly called 'Loving Words Gospel Melodies for the Young' compiled by W. Bramwell Dick. Fifth Edition Edinburgh, August 1928. It's not complete as some hymns have been cut out. It's out of print, but I think there are still some copies in an assembly in Scotland.
