Guter Hirt, p. 723, ii. The version in The English Hymnal, 1906, beginning "Gentle Shepherd, Thou hast stilled," is in two parts, the second, "God, we thank Thee; not in vain," being by the Rev. P. Dearmer. Of the 16 lines in the first part, there are 7 more or less altered from Miss Winkworth's version of the German; the rest are not hers. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.]
