Darby was a man of many outstanding attainments. He was a prodigious worker for the Lord; a preacher of the glad tidings of God; a pastor of God's flock; a penman of exceptional skill; a prophet who told forth and foretold the Word of God; and he was a psalmist of sweet songs. It is this last feature that concerns us in this article. For those who would like an interesting account of Mr.
