Come,
Christians, Join to Sing was written in 1843 as a children's
hymn, with the original title Come, Children, Join to Sing.
It was published in Scotland, in a hymn-book for children entitled
The Sabbath School Book. It was wildly popular, and sold
more than 6 million copies—an astounding figure for those times.
