O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go
IN THIS EPISODE: “O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go” by George Matheson (1842-1906)
“It was written in the Manse of Innellan one summer evening of 1882. It was composed with extreme rapidity, and I felt myself rather in the position of one who was being dictated to than of an original artist. I was suffering from extreme mental distress, and the hymn was the fruit of pain.”
