Jane Borthwick

(Borthwick, Jane, 1813-1897)

Jane Laurie Borthwick (9 April 1813, Edinburgh, Scotland; 7 September 1897, Edinburgh, Scotland) was hymn writer, translator of German hymns and a noble supporter of home and foreign missions. She worked closely with her sister, Sarah Laurie Findlater. She published under the pseudonym: H. L. L. (Hymns from the Land of Luther). Jane Laurie Borthwick is best known for the Hymns from the Land of Luther; her most famous translation today is Be still, my soul and her most known original text is Come, labor on. Like Catherine Winkworth and Frances Elizabeth Cox, she greatly contributed to English-language hymnody by mediating German hymnody. (From Wikipedia)
