Opened Treasures

by Frances Ridley Havergal, William J. Pell (Compilation)

A daily devotional reader by Frances Ridley Havergal. What singled her out was the note of absoluteness in her spiritual experience. She learned the secret of abandonment, and she yielded herself utterly toGod. By virtue of this, her writings reached and moved a multitude of souls with strange penetrating power.

About the author

Frances Ridley Havergal was an English religious poet and hymnwriter. "Take My Life and Let it Be" and "Thy Life for Me" (also known as "I Gave My Life for Thee") are two of her best known hymns. She also wrote hymn melodies, religious tracts, and works for children. She did not occupy, and did not claim for herself, a prominent place as a poet, but by her distinct individuality, she carved out a niche which she alone could fill.
