"To see a masterpiece of painting on the walls of an art gallery while a throng of conventional sightseers is pressing past is a very different matter to seeing it quietly on the walls of some stately mansion, when there is time to sit down and drink in the artist's thought, or catch the different lights of early morning, of noon, or of the fading day.

"To see a masterpiece of painting on the walls of an art gallery while a throng of conventional sightseers is pressing past is a very different matter to seeing it quietly on the walls of some stately mansion, when there is time to sit down and drink in the artist's thought, or catch the different lights of early morning, of noon, or of the fading day. "Perhaps the enjoyment is the more complete when some devoted lover of the work stands beside, telling the story of its daily effect upon his mind, and indicating subtle beauties which had escaped the first superficial gaze. It is with some such intention that this book is sent forth, that, in the quiet of the sick-chamber or of the prayer-closet, attention may be again concentrated on this inimitable psalm; that the familiar words may be considered in the light of growing Christian experience; and that perchance some unnoticed beauty may be suggested by one who seldom comes to it without discerning some fresh reason to thank the Spirit of Inspiration that He ever led the sweet minstrel of Scripture to indite the Shepherd Psalm." Frederick Brotherton Meyer was a Baptist pastor and evangelist in England, a contemporary and friend of D. L. Moody and A. C. Dixon. Meyer was involved in ministry and inner city mission work on both sides of the Atlantic, authored 40 religious books, numerous articles and was described as The Archbishop of the Free Churches.

Autorenporträt
Frederick Brotherton Meyer (8 April 1847 - 28 March 1929), a contemporary and friend of D. L. Moody and A. C. Dixon, was a Baptist pastor and evangelist in England who worked in ministry and inner-city missions on both sides of the Atlantic. In an obituary, he was referred to as The Archbishop of the Free Churches. He wrote numerous religious books and essays, many of which are still in print today. Friedrich Meyer was born in London. He attended Brighton College before graduating from the University of London in 1869. He studied theology at Regent's Park College. Meyer was a member of the Higher Life movement and frequently preached at the Keswick Convention. He was recognized as a champion against immorality. He preached against alcoholism and prostitution. He is reported to have led to the closure of hundreds of saloons and brothels. While in York in the early 1870s, F. B. Meyer met American evangelist Dwight L. Moody, whom he introduced to other chapels, churches, and ministers in England in exchange for invitations to minister in America on many occasions. The two pastors formed lifelong friendships.
