Rian A. Dykes (an anagram of Ira D. Sankey)

 サンキーは若い頃、南北戦争に従事した。そこでしばしば軍属の牧師と兵士たちの賛美歌を手伝った。戦争後は税務署に勤め、YMCAでも働いた。ゴスペル・シンガーとしても有名になり、エヴァンジェリストのDwight Lyman Moodyの目にとるようになった。1870年6月に、二人はインディアナ州インディアナポリスで開催されたYMCAの大会で出会う。数か月後、SankeyはMoodyの最初の伝道大会に参加し、間もなく、公務員を辞めた。

 1871年10月、シカゴ大火のあった時、SankeyとMoodyとは、リバイバル集会の最中だった。二人は猛火の中から辛うじて脱出した。Sankeyはミシガン湖に漕ぎ出したボートの上で町が燃えているのを見ることになる。

 Sankeyは生涯に約1,200曲の作曲をした。最後の5年は緑内障のために失明するが、疑いもなく盲人の友であり、音楽作家のパートナーであったFanny Crosbyから同じスピリットを感じていた。彼の著作は以下のものを含む。
