| Summary | "Sacred Hymns from the German" by Frances Elizabeth Cox is a collection of translated religious hymns written in the early 19th century. This volume features hymns that reflect the spirit and piety of sacred song originating from Germany, primarily since the time of the Reformation. The compilation aims to convey not only the emotional depth of the original texts but also their stylistic integrity in English. The opening of the collection introduces the context and purpose behind these translations, highlighting the historical significance of German sacred poetry as a substitute for Latin hymns within the church. It emphasizes the simplicity and heartfelt quality of the hymns, designed to uplift and inspire personal devotion. The text notes that these hymns can evoke moments of reflection and comfort, positioning the collection as a means for English-speaking readers to engage with the rich spiritual heritage of German hymnody through faithful translations.
