| Summary | "Hymns from the German" by Frances Elizabeth Cox is a collection of religious hymns translated into English, likely written in the mid-19th century. This compilation serves to introduce a selection of German sacred poetry to English-speaking audiences, drawing from various poets whose works reflect their deep faith and devotion. The hymns included explore themes of worship, hope, and the Christian experience, aiming to resonate spiritually with readers. The opening portion of the text sets the tone with a preface that explains its purpose as a collection that brings German hymns to an English audience for the first time. Frances Elizabeth Cox acknowledges that these sacred poems have long been treasured in Germany yet remain largely unknown to the English-speaking world until now. The translated hymns present an array of heartfelt expressions of faith, addressing topics such as gratitude, divine protection, and the beauty of creation. The opening hymns are presented in both German and English, encouraging readers to appreciate the original language while engaging with the English translations.
