Born: May 5, 1795, Cork, Ireland.
Died: November 23, 1867, Wildecroft, Buckland, Surrey, England.
Son of a merchant in Cork, Cummins moved to London in 1834, and many years directed the Union Bank of Australia. He devoted much time to the study of Hebrew and theology, and his children’s use in preparation for confirmation, prepared Seals of the Covenant Opened in the Sacraments, which was published in 1839. It was republished in 1849 as Hymns, Meditations and Other Poems; the title on the cover was Lyra Evangelica, and it is usually known by this name.
Hymns:
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
