The first eleven chapters of this book were a posthumous compilation of magazine articles that Frances Ridley Havergal wrote on hymnwriters and hymns. F.R.H. being such a gifted poet and hymnwriter, her selections and comments are very insightful and helpful. The last of her articles here was written on Horatius Bonar's hymns, not finished. After that, two similar essays by Frances' oldest sister Miriam Crane are given, one on Frances's own hymns and one on their father William Henry Havergal's hymns. This book is another set of pieces known by very few over the past century, yet having true...

Frances Ridley Havergal spent much time and attention on this calendar book. Her Preface was dated May, 1879, and no one had thought that she would die weeks later, on June 3.

William Henry Havergal, at the start of each month, and finally a poem by him at the end of the year. Everything in this book is richly edifying. Day by day, looking...

She planned thirteen chapters for Starlight Through the Shadows, but only finished eleven of them before she was called into His presence. Starlight has much truth and encouragement for the invalid and those who are afflicted; Frances had been herself invalid and sick near...

Though many are familiar with the hymn, "Take my life and let it be," few know the story or author behind it. In this book, the hymn writer herself writes for us her thoughts on this famous hymn. She brings us through each phrase of the song, and reveals some personal God-fearing thoughts concerning them. Thus we are able to hear from the writer herself, with the thoughts that inspired each line of this traditional favorite. Kept for the Master's use is more than just a wonderful piece of classic literature. It is a personal testament to what is means to live a life fully submitted and...
