Isaac Watts
May must be Isaac Watts Month at Ligonier Ministries Blog. Through the end of May — only a few days away, so you’ll need to hurry — you can download an eBook edition of Douglas Bond’s The Poetic Wonder of Isaac Watts. (Isaac Watts is the poet who wrote the words to When I Survey the Wondrous Cross, which is, according to me, the best English language hymn ever written.)
You can also read a few posted excerpts from this book.

- Isaac Watts: His Rhymed Sermons
- Isaac Watts: Hymns for All Time
- Isaac Watts: The Calvinist
