Exceptional and rare full page holograph of hymn by Hill. He was one of the most important figures in the later Great Awakening. He found Surrey Chapel with the assistance of the famous Selina, Countess of Hutingdon, was Chairman of the Religious Tract Society and influential on both the British Foreign and Bible Society and the London Missionary Society. Fine six stanza hymn/poem dated 1827 based upon a Scriptural reference to 1 Corinthians 2.9 Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath entered into the heart of man the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. The hymn, though not with all of the stanzas as here, was published as part of Rowland Hill's Village Dialogues, one of the influences for Spurgeon's (who loved Hill and wrote a biography of him) John Ploughman's Talks. Possibly unpublished as complete as present. Nice, clean and on large sheet.
