The Bells of Is

Frederick Brotherton Meyer (1847 - 1929)

"It has always seemed to me, amid submerged masses, deep down at the bottom of the ocean of human life, there are yearnings and desires for a better life, that ring sadly and perpetually. It has been the aim of my life to listen for these, and where I have detected them, to present the only answer -- the love of God in Jesus Christ our Lord.

Some of the ways in which I have sought to do this during my Leicester life are narrated in this book, which serves to show what may be done in this direction amid the cares of a busy pastorate." (from the Preface)
