'Hymns from the German' is an anthology of sacred poetry that introduces the beautiful hymns of German poets to English readers. The German text is printed on corresponding pages to aid young students of German who wish to learn about the hymns of Gerhard, Angelus, and others without searching through extensive collections. Here's an excerpt from one of the poems featured in this book, 'Evening Hymn': «Now hushed are woods and waters / At rest toil's sons and daughters / The world aslumber lies / But thou, my Soul, awake thee.»
