Charlotte Elliott (18 March 1789 – 22 September 1871) was an English evangelical Anglican [1] poet, hymn writer, and editor. She is best known by two hymns, "Just As I Am" and "Thy will be done". [2] Elliott edited Christian Remembrancer Pocket Book (1834–1859) and The Invalid's Hymn book, 6th edition, 1854. [2]
The Book of Hymns was the official hymnal of The Methodist Church, later the United Methodist Church, in the United States, until it was replaced in 1989 by The United Methodist Hymnal. Published in 1966 by The Methodist Publishing House , it replaced The Methodist Hymnal of 1935 as the official hymnal of the church.
Several international hymns were also selected, including Spanish, Asian and American Indian hymns, as well as Black spirituals. [3] Duke Ellington's "Come Sunday" was also included. [3] In compositions by John Wesley, many of the lyrical changes made by his brother Charles were reverted, and most uses of "thee" were replaced with "you". [2]
