A hymn which helps us to appreciate the fact that it is the Lord who redeems us is "My Faith Has Found A Resting Place." The text was written, under the pseudonym of Lidie H. Edmunds, by Eliza Edmunds Hewitt (1851-1920). A lifelong resident of Philadelphia, PA, Mrs. Hewitt wrote many songs which became popular and are found in our books, such as "Sunshine in My Soul, "When We All Get To Heaven," "More About Jesus," "Give Me Thy Heart," and "Will There Be Any Stars In My Crown."

Edmunds, by Eliza Edmunds Hewitt (1851-1920). A lifelong resident of Philadelphia, PA, Mrs. Hewitt wrote many songs which became popular and are found in our books, such as "Sunshine in My Soul, "When We All Get To Heaven," "More About Jesus," "Give Me Thy Heart," and "Will There Be Any Stars In My Crown." The tune (No Other Plea, Landas, or Norse Air) is usually identified as a Norwegian folk melody originally with the words "The Hardy Norseman’s House of Yore." It has been attributed to Belgian opera composer Andre Ernest Modeste Gretry (1741-1813). The arrangement for use with the hymn was made by William James Kirkpatrick (1838-1920). The song first appeared in Songs of Joy and Gladness, No. 2 published around 1890 or 1891 which Kirkpatrick compiled for McDonald, Gill and Co. of Boston, MA, and Chicago, IL. Apparently it did not appear in any other collections until the Plymouth Brethren’s 1944 Choice Hymns of the Faith. It is not in many of the older denominational hymnbooks that I have in my collection, but it is found in a large number of the newer ones. This song emphasizes the fact that Jesus Christ as the only basis for our faith. Stanza 1 says that Jesus lives, stanza 2 says that Jesus saves, stanza 3 says that Jesus leads, stanza 4 says that Jesus heals and The chorus points out that we need nothing other than what Jesus provides for us.
