Greenland's Icy Mountains Hymn Ties to Georgia Creator
The famous missionary hymn originated with Georgia ties. Reginald Heber wrote the words in 1823, Miss Mary W. Howard of Savannah pressed for music, and Lowell Mason, then a Savannah bank clerk, completed the tune in minutes. The hymn carried missionary zeal. Heber and Mason are now deceased, and Howard’s descendants preserve the original vellum copy from 1827 in Savannah.
