O I Love To Talk with Jesus

Hymnal: Gospel Hymns No. 6 #83 (1891) Lyrics: 1 O I love to talk with Jesus, for it smoothes the rugged road; And it seems to help me onward, when I faint beneath my load; When my heart is crush'd with sorrow and my eyes with tears are dim, There is naught can yield me comfort like a little talk with Him. 2 Oft I tell Him I am weary and I fain would be at rest; That I'm daily, hourly longing to repose upon His breast; And He answers me so kindly in the tend'rest tones of love, "I am coming soon to take thee to My happy Home above." 3 Though the way is long and dreary to that far-off distant clime, Yet I know that my Redeemer journeys with me all the time; And the more I come to know Him, and His wondrous grace explore, How my longing groweth stronger still to know Him more and more. 4 So, I'll wait a little longer till my Lord's appointed time, And along the upward pathway still my pilgrim feet shall climb; Soon within my Father's dwelling, where the many mansions be, I shall see my blessed Saviour, and He then will talk with me.

Person Name: Unknown Author of "Oh, I Love To Talk with Jesus" in Christian Hymnal (Rev. ed.) In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

W. G. Fischer

1835 - 1912 Composer of "[O I love to talk with Jesus]" in Gospel Hymns No. 6 William Gustavus Fischer In his youth, William G. Fischer (b. Baltimore, MD, 1835; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1912) developed an interest in music while attending singing schools. His career included working in the book bindery of J. B. Lippencott Publishing Company, teaching music at Girard College, and co-owning a piano business and music store–all in Philadelphia. Fischer eventually became a popular director of music at revival meetings and choral festivals. In 1876 he conducted a thousand-voice choir at the Dwight L. Moody/Ira D. Sankey revival meeting in Philadelphia. Fischer composed some two hundred tunes for Sunday school hymns and gospel songs. Bert Polman
