This article appears in Volume V25, Page 865 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SOU-STE
STEELE, ANNE (1717-1778) ,
English
  hymn writer, was born at
Broughton
 ,
Hampshire
 , in 1717. The drowning of her betrothed a few
hours
  before the time fixed for her
marriage
  deeply affected an otherwise quiet
life
 , and her hymns rather emphasize the less optimistic phases of Christian experience. In 1760 she published Poems on Subjects Chiefly Devotional un/ler the name " Theodosia," and her complete works (144 hymns, 34 metrical
psalms
  and 50 moral poems) appeared in one volume in London (1863). She was a Baptist, and her hymns are much used by members of that communion, though some of them, e.g. " Father of mercies, in Thy word," have found their way into the collections of other Churches. She has been called the Frances Ridley
Havergal
  of the 18th
century
 .
