WVHIGHAMTRUST - the ministry of Vernon Higham

Composition of Hymns

Most of Vernon Higham's hymns were written during a period of serious illness. The hymns reflect the nearness of the Lord at a time of weakness. The very first hymn written in this period of ill health was 'I saw a new vision of Jesus - A view I'd not seen here before'. Other well known hymns include, 'Great is the Gospel of our Glorious God' and 'Deep in my heart there is a sigh'. The majority of Vernon Higham's hymns can be found in 'The Hymns of Vernon Higham' published by Tentmaker. Other publications include some of his Welsh hymns. A number of well known hymns by Vernon Higham, and also more recent compositions, can be found in the new hymn book called 'Christian Worship', recently published.

The Hymns of W.V.Higham
Published by Tentmaker

“A bound volume of 158 hymns which will make an excellent gift. This great preacher has the compelling tenderness of Welsh sacred poetry buried in his soul. The hymns include exultant praise, reflection and petition. Some were composed during times of sickness, and show the way to revive “sensible” grace when clouds obscure and shadows fall. Excellent for composing the heart for devotions.” Peter Masters
