Now the story. Behind the tibunos. Oh, oh, oh, sing them to me again, beautiful words of life. There is in them my joy and light, beautiful words of life. Yes, of light and life they are support and lily. The author of this famous hymn has a short but condensed story. The author' s name is Philip Pliz, born in one thousand eight hundred thirty- eight in Rome, Pensylvania. Even as a child, he showed a lot of interest in anything that could get any sound
out of. He even made his own rudimentary instruments with which to make sounds. It belonged to a very poor family. When he was about ten years old, he heard the sound of a piano for the first time. As he walked down a street, he heard the notes of a piano coming out of a house so much, he was attracted to the music that, without thinking about it, entered the house and immediately found himself next to the lady who was playing it. The lady, after getting scared and seeing him so
dirty and barefoot, fired him urgently. But that sound would remain in the mind of little Philip, when he was already a young man, he wrote a hymn and took him to George root At that time, one of the most famous composers in America. When he sent it to him, he wrote him a note asking for a flute, if he did not find him good
enough. With all kindness, Mr Ruth sent him a flute. This contact later resulted in the formation of an evangelistic team cos s u nto by him as an Evangelist musician and Lord Ruth and the famous wrath of Sankill Phillip Plez is possibly the best known of all the authors of Christian hymns, after only Fanny Crosby, among many other hymns. He made the music for the lyrics that Spathford wrote in such tragic experience. I' m fine with my God.
His short life ended in one thousand eight hundred and seventy- six, when he was barely thirty- eight years old. The train he was traveling with his wife derailed near Ashta bull Ohio. As a result, his wife died and he, having left unharmed, died moments later after attempting to rescue his wife’ s body by then. His popularity had become so notorious that in the city where he grew up, Rome, Pennsylvania, a monument was
erected in his honor. In the words of this precious hymn can be seen the great love that Blis had for the word of God
