Synopsis
Excerpt from The Hymn Lover: An Account of the Rise and Growth of English Hymnody
Critical readers of these pages may perhaps discern a want of proportion in the space given to various writers. This has not been accidental but of set purpose. Of Hymn-writers concerning whom much has been previously written, such as Isaac Watts or Charles Wesley, I have said comparatively little only sufficient to indicate their special characteristics, and the influence they exerted. Of others, concerning whom little, if anything, has been written such as T. H. Grill, and T. T. Lynch, I have said more, in the hope that their writings might thus be made more widely known. My references to hymns have proceeded on the principle that where they were well known it was necessary to quote merely the first line; where they were little known to quote more fully - in some cases, the whole, in others, the finest verses.
