Well, the database shows eleven books edited, compiled, and/or published by M. Homer Cummings, but unfortunately the only one that is fully indexed (as opposed to the alphabetically ordered DNAH system) is the 1920 Songs of Salvation and Service, Revised. 1920 is too early to be the right edition even if it were the right title, and #9 doesn't match. (You may have already done this research; if so, I just duplicated your effort! ;-) ) So, I'm afraid, until someone who has access to the six post-1931 items:
Sacred Selections M. Homer Cummings (Editor and Publisher) 1932 Special Songs M. Homer Cummings (Editor and Publisher) 1935 Spiritual Songs M. Homer Cummings (Editor and Publisher) 1936 Spiritual Songs M. Homer Cummings (Editor and Publisher) 1938 Let Everybody Sing M. Homer Cummings (Editor) 1949 Revival Refrains M. Homer Cummings (Editor and Publisher) 1953 Sing Hosannas (a revised and enlarged ed. of Let Everybody Sing) M. Homer Cummings (Editor and Publisher) 1955
either indexes them or checks your clues, it's unlikely we'll know.
Welcome! I am just now working through my training hymnal as well. I would love to connect if you'd like a partner to discuss progress on adding/updating hymnals! I also have a few hymnals (actually Psalters!) that are either incomplete or missing that I will be working on once I complete training.
Developers, Add a table for meter groups. For example SM is 6696, SMD is 6698 6686, or 6686 D or 6686D whatever…. CM CMD LM LMD, ditto without evebeven referencing some of the common number patterns. Let the user choose (a select box) whether to include all compatible meters.
A couple examples would be “The Chorus” https://hymnary.org/hymnal/C41858 and “The Revivalist” https://hymnary.org/hymnal/RC101880https://hymnary.org/hymnal/RC101880 which have appended choruses to hymns. Other examples would be “At the cross, at the cross” and “We'll walk in the light, beautiful light.” You could probably find more examples by searching “Choruses” under the hymnal title in “Advanced Search” or searching the chorus first line in the Text Name field.

Starting with the hymnals you own would be a good place to begin.
