Richard Roberts

1874 - 1945 Person Name: Richard Roberts, 1874- Author of "For Them Whose Ways Are in the Height" in The Mennonite Hymnary, published by the Board of Publication of the General Conference of the Mennonite Church of North America 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. --Hugh D.
