AUTHOR OF THE NIGHT OF WEEPING," "THE MORNING OF JOY," ETC. NEW YORK: ROBERT CARTER & BROTHERS, No. 530 BROADWAY. General Library System Madison, WI 53706-1494 289549 MAR 27 1925 CW ·B64 1857 PREFACE. MOST of the following pieces have appeared already in different journals, or in other shapes and ways, during the last twelve years. They are now gathered together into one volume, in order that anything useful in them may be preserved and made more accessible. They are what they are here called, Hymns of Faith and Hope. They belong to no church or sect. They are not the expressions of one man's or one party's faith and hope but are meant to speak what may be : thought and spoken by all to whom the Church's ancient faith and hope are dear.
