Autorenporträt

Frances Ridley Havergal (1836–1879) was a distinguished English religious poet and hymn writer, whose devout spiritual works were prominent in the Victorian era. Born at Astley in Worcestershire, Havergal manifested her literary talents early in life, influenced by her father, William Henry Havergal, a notable composer and churchman. Frances is best known for her contribution to Protestant hymnody, exemplified by 'Coming to the King' and her widely recognized hymn 'Take My Life and Let It Be.' Her literary style often reflected the fervent faith and personal piety that characterized the evangelical movement of her time. Havergal's hymns frequently emphasized submission to God and a commitment to Christian service, echoing themes of devotion and consecration prevalent in her other writings, such as 'Kept for the Master's Use' and 'My King and His Service.' Despite her relatively short life, Havergal's profound works like 'Coming to the King' continue to have an enduring impact on Christian literature. Her sincere and contemplative prose continues to inspire readers, underscoring her legacy as a pivotal figure in the annals of Christian hymnody.
