Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Parish Musings: Or, Devotional Poems The following pages contain literally what they profess - Parish Musings; - Hymns, not the result of retired and contemplative study, but the unpremeditated aspirations and utterances of the heart of one engaged in the active scenes of Parish labour; - suggested by the incidents or feelings of each passing day, composed on foot or on horseback, in storm or sunshine, - by the way-side or on the hill-top, in the country meadow, or the busy street, - by day or by night, - wherever duty called, and whenever the spirit caught, from without or within, subject-matter for serious conversation with Heaven. In most cases they have sprung from the consciousness of wants and weaknesses found within the writers own breast, - when a giddy hour, an angry word, a wandering spirit, a cold heart, a failing faith, made him feel bitterly his own shortcomings, and long for more constant and real communion with Christ. The only merit they claim is, that they are practical, not theoretical; not the cold musings of the head of one at ease; but the warm gushings of the heart of one, toiling himself, and striving to lead others amid the dust and conflict of the journey of life. As such they are now collected, to edify, to encourage, to comfort. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
