What wotld scem to give color to the elaim is that in 1519 Mont- gomery published a volume of hymns of his own composition and published this along with them as anonymous, and that in the original manuseriptin the hands of the Daw- son family there are other stanzas not pub- lished by Montgomery, which in_poetic fire and deep devotion are 5o akin to the familiar hymn as to induce the belief that they are by tho same author, and that this hymn was published in America by Mrs. Dawson in 1810, "The late eloguent pastor of +lymouth church, Brooklyn, wrote this characteristic letter in October, '1884: My DEAR DAwsoN: Yes, Tam on your side, our rdid w » that hym-—bless her, ry hive me! a set- where prayer 18 sup- Y WARD BEECHER, The following are some of tho stanzas un- pubilshed : A Prayer Is the sweetest way to blend Oir hopes and fours with lo When we such message fair would send To Wi who reigns ahove.
