The Olney Hymns

"The Olney Hymns" is a collection of Christian hymns written in the late 18th century by John Newton, a former slave trader turned clergyman, and William Cowper, a poet. These hymns aim to deepen spiritual worship and reflection, emphasizing themes like salvation, grace, and God's love. They are known for their poetic beauty and theological depth, and many are used in church services to inspire devotion. The collection played a significant role in shaping modern hymnody and continues to influence Christian worship practices today.
