Siionin Virret

Siionin Virret

Siionin virret ("Hymns of Zion") is a hymnbook of the Finnish "herännäisliike" or so called "körtti" people (very roughly comparable to the Amish in the United States). It is used especially at small informal meetings and at their major meetings. At the summer of 2005 meeting, at Saarijärvi an addendum book was published which contains 53 new and old hymns. With this addendum, the canon of the hymnbook contains 314 hymns.

The first edition of the book was published in 1790. The current edition dates to 1972.
