Eliza Scudder
1821 - 1896 Author of "My God, I rather look to Thee" in Worship Song Scudder, Eliza , niece of Dr. E. H. Sears, (q.v.), was born in Boston, U.S.A., Nov. 14,1821, and now (1888) lives in Salem, Massachusetts. Formerly an Unitarian, she some time ago joined the Protestant Episcopal Church. Her hymns in common use are:—
1. From past regret and present[faithlessness] feebleness . Repentance. In the Quiet Hours, Boston, 1875.
2. I cannot find Thee! Still on restless pinion . Seeking after God. Appeared in Longfellow and Johnson's Unitarian Hymns of the Spirit, 1864.
3. In Thee my powers and treasures live. Faith.
4. Life of our life, and light of all our seeing! Prayer. In the Boston Quiet Hours, 1875.
5. The day is done; the weary day of thought and toil is past. Evening. In Sermons and Songs of the Christian Life, by E. H. Sears, Boston, 2nd ed.,1878, p. 296, entitled "Vesper Hymn," and dated "October, 1874." This is possibly her finest hymn.
6. Thou grace divine, encircling all . Divine Grace. Appeared in Dr. E. H. Sears's Pictures of the Olden Time, as shown in the Fortunes of a Family of Pilgrims, 1857. It was written in 1852, and included in the Boston Hymns of the Spirit, 1864. It has sometimes been taken as "An Ancient Catholic Hymn" (Universalist's Psalms & Hymns 1865), but in error.
7. Thou long disowned, reviled, oppresst. The Spirit of Truth. In the Boston Hymns of the Spirit, 1864.
Of these hymns, Nos. 2, 6, and 7 are in Dr. Martineau's Hymns, 1873. Some of Miss Scudder's poetical pieces appeared in Dr. Sears's Monthly Religious Magazine. Her Hymns and Sonnets, by E. S., were published by Lockwood, Brooks & Co., Boston, 1880. From this her hymn "Thou hast gone up again" (Ascension), is taken. [Rev. F. M. Bird, M.A.]
