Thomas Roberts

Roberts, Thomas. Concerning this writer and his hymn, “My Shepherd's mighty aid" (Ps. xxiii.). Nutter says in his Hymn Studies, 1881, p. 297, that the hymn "came into our hymn-book (Methodist Episcopal Hymns) in 1849. I have not been able to learn anything more concerning it, or its author."
