James Allen (1734-1804).
The writer was the son of Oswald Allen, and was born at Gayle, Yorkshire, England, on June 24, 1734. Just how he was led to Christ is not known but early in his conversion he became aware to the flagrant immorality in the Anglican Church and became an “itinerant” preacher after embracing Methodist beliefs. Once when “field preaching” a mob threatened his life and he was saved by the local magistrate who was an old friend of his. One of his hymns is a real challenge to the conscience:-
“Sinners, will you scorn the message? ” Charles Wesley says of him (October 17, 1756), ”A young preacher came to spend the evening with me at Mr. Grimshaw’s. I found love for him, and wished that all our sons in the Gospel were equally modest and discreet. ”
In Scotland he and Christopher Batty compiled a hymn book. It included 71 of Mr. Allen’s hymns which was 50% of the book. He returned to his birth place at Gayle and there continued to preach the gospel until his death on October 31, 1804.

被贖族類都來，
同心向主敬拜，
向祂讚美；
因祂我得歡樂，
發出感恩詩歌，
起來，口唱心和，
『羔羊是配。』
