Well with my soul : four dramatic stories of great hymn writers
Personal Author EPSB:
Summary:
Discover the stories-and the special meaning-behind four favorite hymns of the faith: "It Is Well with My Soul, " "Like a River Glorious, " "There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood, " and "Let the Lower Lights Be Burning." Meet Horatio Spafford, Frances Ridley Havergal, William Cowper, and Philip P. Bliss, the courageous eighteenth- and nineteenth-century hymn writers who overcame great trial and tragedy to pen some of Christendom's greatest songs. Compelling personal stories-of a shipwreck that claimed precious daughters, of faith amidst frailty, of debilitating depression, and of death in a burning rail car-show God's power to make everything well with our souls, no matter what the circumstance.
