Of this compilation Watchman-Examiner said, "No collection of poems we have seen in recent years is so satisfying as this one." This is indicative of the blessing those poems have been to countless readers in various walks of life and in varying circumstances. Among the 365 poems included in this volume are inspiring works by: Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Robert Browning, Horatius Bonar, John Greenleaf Whittier, Thomas A Kempis, William Cullen Bryant, Alfred Lord Tennyson, Frances Ridley Havergal, Robert Murray M'Cheyne, and scores of others. Thousands of readers were blessed before by these great poems. They are made available again by overwhelming popular demand. - Jacket flap. The great temptation which comes to the collector of poems for an anthology is to select only his own personal favorites. I have resisted that temptation to the extent of including in the present volume several score poems which have never appealed strongly to me personally, but which have, over a period of many years, proved generally popular. I have sought to select poems which arouse fragrant memories of the past, lighten sad hours, and lift man's thoughts heavenward. Most of the poems included herein have definite literary value. A few, I must confess, have not, but all have heart-appeal. Some are new and are printed here for the first time. Others have been out of print so long that they will seem new to many readers. Some will be recognized as old favorites. Others unfamiliar to the average reader will become old friends as they are read again and again and are treasured in the memory. In every case where it has been possible to ascertain authorship, proper acknowledgment has been made. We appreciate the cooperation of authors and publishers in granting permission to use copyrighted material. - Bob Jones, Jr. - Introduction.
