Representative Text

1 "Em Mim permanecei",
Disseste, ó Salvador;
Oh, quão seguros os que em Ti
Encontram todo o amor!

2 Conosco sê, Senhor,
Pois logo a noite vem;
Pedimos Tua proteção,
Ó Deus, o Sumo Bem.

William Anglin (1882–1965) was born in Stockton-on-Tees, England, where he was successful as a steel mill manager until he felt God's call to missionary work. He arrived in Brazil in 1926 and worked primarily in the Zona da Mata region (MG, RJ, and ES), dedicating himself to evangelization, teaching children to read and write, and supporting other missionaries. He distinguished himself as a hymnologist, contributing 63 compositions to the hymnal Hinos e Cânticos and authoring the adaptation of A. E. Knight's History of Christianity.

He died on September 7, 1965, leaving behind an important missionary and musical legacy. Go to person page >
