Excerpt from Prayers From Plymouth Pulpit

The most experienced Christians, who attend the religious services of Plymouth Church, have been specially interested in the devotional exercises of that famous pulpit; and have often felt these to be even more impressive than the sermons themselves, which are so greatly sought after. These exercises are found so full of the most elevated thoughts, expressed in such affluent and appropriate words, as to be quite unique in their effect, carrying the sympathizing heart as it were up to the very throne of mercy, and bringing the soul into conscious communion with our Father who is in heaven. The continual diversity of the themes dwelt upon, the copiousness and beauty of the language, the evident absence of formality and pre-arrangement, with the graphic distinctness and completeness of the presentation, make these exercises worthy to be taken as models of extemporaneous prayer. But their highest value is in their fitness to train the hearts of those who earnestly unite in them; and to lead them into the richest experiences of the spirit of prayer, as that consists in the conscious intercourse of the human soul with its Maker. God.

My venerable and esteemed friend, the Reverend Doctor John Marsh, so long and widely honored for his useful labors in the Temperance cause, in a frequent attendance at Plymouth Church, found these exercises so attractive and profitable, that he could not but long to renew their impressions. It seemed like a great loss that such glowing words and heavenly thoughts should be heard but once, and never be repeated or recalled.

He thereupon conceived the idea of having some of them faithfully reported, so that he might preserve them, first, for his own personal use and satisfaction, and then with the thought that, at some day yet remote, they might perhaps be properly given to the public in print, for the general use of devout hearts.
