John Hunt
b. 1827 Translator of "From Yonder World I Come To Earth" in The Cyber Hymnal Hunt, John, D.D., was born at Bridgend, Perth, Jan. 21, 1827, and educated at the University of St. Andrews (D.D. 1878). In 1855 he was ordained to the curacy of Deptford, Sunderland. He held several curacies to 1878, when he became vicar of Oxford, near Sevenoaks. He was for some time on the staff of the Contemporary Review. He has published Select Poems, 1852, being translations from Goethe, Schiller, and other German poets. Also The Spiritual Songs of Martin Luther, 1853. These Songs are noted in this Dictionary under their first lines in German. Very few of them have come into common use. This volume also contains hymns founded on the German of Zinzendorf and others. The versions, however, are very free, and, at Dr. Hunt's suggestion, are not noted in detail in this Dictionary. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.]

Richard Roberts
1874 - 1945 Person Name: Richard E. Roberts Translator (from Latin) of "An Image of That Heavenly Light" in The Cyber Hymnal Roberts, Richard. (Festiniog, Wales, May 31, 1874--April 11, 1945, New York). Presbyterian/United Church. University of Wales, B.A., 1894. His ordination (1897) was preceded by work among Welsh coal-miners and followed by a time as assistant to the principal of Bala Theological College. He held three pastorates in London before emigrating first to Brooklyn, N.Y. (1917-1921), then to Montreal (1921-1926), and finally to Toronto (1926-1938). Here the skill of his preaching led to his election as moderator of the United Church for 1935-1936. His hymn "For those whose ways are in the height" was picked up from The Hymnary by the Methodists of Australia, another Dominion with great stretches of territory inaccessible except by air; considering the kind of planes they had to fly, and the weather they had to combat, pilots in both countries needed all the prayers they could get.
