Frances Ridley Havergal wrote one of her most famous poems while she was in Dusseldorf, Germany.
She had gone to Germany to do some specialized study. While there, she saw a copy of Sternburgs great painting: The CRUCIFIXION. The title above the picture was, All this I did for thee; what has thou done for Me?
Inspired by the probing question, she wrote her famous poem, I Gave My Life for Thee. But she was not happy with the poem and threw it into the fire, but a draft blew the paper out of the fire and onto the hearth. Feeling that this might have been Providential, Miss Havergal took the slightly-scorched paper, folded it, and sent it to her father in England.
He composed a tune to match the words and had it published. However, the tune we now use with this superb poem was written years later by P. P. Bliss, an associate of D. L. Moody.
