Waugh Author of "Where is Jesus, little children?" in Worship Song Waugh, Benjamin, was born at Settle, in Yorkshire, Feb. 20, 1839, and educated for the Congregational Ministry at Airedale College, Bradford. He has held pastorates at Newbury, Berkshire, Greenwich, and New Southgate. He has been for several years editor of The Sunday Magazine, and a large contributor to its pages. He has published (1) The Goal Cradle, Who rocks it; (2) Sunday Evenings with my Children; (3) The Children's Sunday Hour; (4) The Child of the English Savage; (5) Imperial Legislation and Street Children. Mr. Waugh's hymns have appeared from time to time in The Sunday Magazine, and have not been separately published. Those which have come into common use include:— 1. Jesus, the Friend of friendless men. Jesus the Sinner's Friend. 1874. 2. 0 happy pair of Nazareth. The Child Jesus. 3. O let me see Thy beauty. Lord. The Beauty of the Lord. This is given in a revised form as “Now let us see Thy beauty, Lord," in Horder's Congregational Hymns, 1884. Mr. Waugh's hymns are for children's use, and are exceedingly fresh and unconventional. Several others of merit might be selected from the Sunday Magazine with advantage to children's hymnody. [Rev. W.

Mr. Waugh's work at p. 1241, ii., as The Good Cradle, &c, should be The Goal Cradle, &c. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.] --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, New Supplement (1907)
