Songs from the Hearts of Women: One Hundred Famous Hymns and Their Writers (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Songs From the Hearts of Women: One Hundred Famous Hymns and Their Writers

The period covered by the hymn-writers represented in this volume is two hundred years - from Madame Guyon to Mary A. Lathbury. In this group of one hundred hymns are some of the most exquisite verses to be found in the language. They are truly heart - songs, with that touch of Nature which makes the whole world kin. Only from woman's heart can come such blended delicacy of thought, tenderness of tone, and deeply religious feeling. Most of these hymns have long been associated with the music of the Church, and around them cluster many pleasing or sacred memories.
