作詞作品:
Away from God
Behold the Lamb of God
Blessed Lamb, on Calvary's Mountain
Bright Were the Mornings First Impearled
Crown Him with Many Crowns
From Circlets Starred with Many a Gem
Head of the Hosts in Glory
Holy of Holies, Seat of Love
Jesu! to Thee We Look
Lo! on the Slope of Yonder Shore
My God, Accept My Heart This Day
Rise, Glorious Conqueror
Rise, O Lord, in All Thy Glory
Rose of the Cross, Thou Mystic Flower
Soil Not Thy Plumage, Gentle Dove
Wave the Sweet Censer, Wave
