Anne Steele and Her Spiritual Vision
ISBN: 9781601781857Anne Steele (1717 - 1778) has been recognized as one of the leading female hymnwriters of her time. In Anne Steele and Her Spiritual Vision, Priscilla Wong demonstrates how Steele was able to see God in different circumstances of her life and expressed it in three main themes that can be found in her hymnody: the glory of God in creation, faith in the face of suffering, and hope in the promised glory.
This close analysis of Steele's hymns not only establishes a more coherent and intimate picture of the hymnwriter's life and spirituality but also cultivates a more intense desire for Christians at large to grow in their faith and understanding of God
