Stuart K. Hine was a Bristish Methodist missionary on a mission trip in Ukraine in 1931 when he heard the Russian translation of a German song inspired by Carl Boberg's poem "O Store Gud" (O Great God). Hine began to translate the song to English and added several verses. The third verse was inspired by the conversion of villagers in Russia who cried out to God loudly as the repented and realized God's love and mercy - "And when I think that God, His Son not sparing, sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in."
Stuart Hine and his family left Ukraine as famine and World War Two began, and settled in Somerset, Britain, where he continued to serve as a missionary to Polish refugees. The forth verse of "How Great Thou Art" was inspired by displaced Russians who experienced great loss and looked forward to seeing their loved ones again in heaven - "When Christ shall come with shoult of acclamation to take me home, what joy shall fill my heart."

Reverend BRASKAMP. Almighty God, we have assembled here to render tributes of love and respect to one of our highly esteemed Members whom we greatly honor. Thou has endowed him richly with the talents and gifts of wise counsel and good judgment and wisdom in the affairs of government and the business of statecraft.
We rejoice that throughout the many years he has rendered patriotic service to our beloved country and all mankind. Grant that he may continue to sense the sanctity of his high vocation as a Member of the Congress, never being recreant in the performance of any of his duties and responsibilities; and may he have within his heart the joy of knowing that he is living a useful life and seeking to discharge the duties and responsibilities of his high office, its demands and challenges, with fidelity and with loyalty. Hear us in the name of the Prince of Peace. Amen.
I wish there was some way to describe Sam Rayburn. Sam Rayburn to me is a fabulous, fantastic man. He has been serving his country for over 50 long years, longer than most of you have been on this earth. I have a lawyer, Mr. S. P. Gaillard, who is going along fine at the age of 101 and I have already paid him over $25,000 this year to represent me. I only hope and pray to God that Sam Rayburn will live to be 101. I think of him as Mr. Texas. I think of him as Mr. Democrat. We ought to call him Mr. America, as we call these beautiful ladies Miss America. To me he is a great man.
I am happy to be here on this occasion because it is doing honor to one of the closest friends that I have had in Washington for many, many years. I remember when he came here as a very young man as secretary to a great North Carolinian, Lindsay Warren, who decided that he wanted to take another course. Of course this young man had so impressed the district in his work with Lindsay Warren for the good of his district that they had no other choice than to send him here in Lindsay's place.
Herbert Bonner doesn't talk too much but when he does talk he challenges the attention of the House of Representatives because he knows what he is talking about. No man, it matters not how able he may be, can know enough about all the bills that are reported to the House of Representatives to be able to talk intelligently about them because there just is not such a man or woman or any such a mind.
I am happy that you are doing this honor to this great American, this great chairman of this great committee, because he deserves it. In the future I will be happy to visit this room and see his portrait, indicative of your love for him and honoring the great service that he has rendered to you as members of this committee, to us as Members of the Congress of the United States, and to us as American citizens everywhere.
This is a tremendously important committee and it has been chaired by some of the greatest men that I have served with in the House of Representatives but none greater than Herbert Bonner. So today I am glad to be here to join you in paying this high tribute to this man of high character, of great ability, who loves this country. It is a high privilege to present this portrait of Herbert Bonner, your friend, your chairman, to this committee to hang here throughout the years. [Applause.]
Mr. BOYKIN. Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Bonner, Herb, and this great committee, I want to tell you, Mr. Speaker, that everything you said is true about my beloved friend Herbert Bonner from North Carolina. He is not from North Carolina; he is from the whole Nation and he has done such a great job for his district and his State and the Nation.
Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries, of which I am the ranking majority member, we are happy to accept this magnificent portrait of our illustrious chairman, Herbert C. Bonner. I have had the pleasure of being a member of this committee ever since I have been in Congress, for nearly 22 years. Herb, as he is affectionately known by all of us, had been on the Hill as secretary to Hon. Lindsay Warren for 16 years. When Mr. Warren resigned to become Comptroller General of the United States, Herb was elected on November 5, 1940, to fill Mr. Warren's unexpired term and has been reelected to each succeeding Congress.
Herb was born in Washington, N. C. (we won't say how many years ago), and married a very lovely lady, Eva Hassell Hackney, of his hometown. During World War I he was a sergeant in Company I, 322d Infantry, and served overseas with the 81st Division during World War I. Like myself, he is an Elk, a Mason, and a Shriner.
During the 84th Congress our committee, under Herb's chairmanship, produced a record of constructive activity unequaled in any prior Congress since the formation of its present jurisdiction pursuant to the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946. Major legislation at this session included authorization for the world's finest atomic-powered merchant ship; the Fisheries and Wildlife Act of 1956; the granting of permanent status to the United States Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, N. Y.; authorization of 100 percent mortgage insurance on privately financed loans for the construction of vessels; bills increasing the safety of operation of small craft, including the inspection and certification of vessels carrying more than six passengers for hire; and several bills authorizing the sale of Government-owned ships to expand or inaugurate essential shipping service.
The Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries dates from December 21, 1887, when it was created to take the place of the old Select Committee on American Shipbuilding and Shipowning Interest. Originally there were 13 members of the committee. Currently there are 31, not including the nonvoting Delegate from Alaska who is also a member of the committee.
6. Measures relating to the regulations of common carriers by water (except matters subject to the jurisdiction of the Interstate Commerce Commission) and to the inspection of merchant marine vessels, lights and signals, lifesaving equipment, and fire protection on such vessels.
I could go on and on about the work of this committee down through the years, but I regret because of the passing of the beloved wife of our colleague and friend, John Allen, Jr., that we will have to cut short our remarks, since her funeral will take place at St. Marks at 11:30 this morning.
Mr. Speaker, again I want to say how much the members of our committee appreciate having this portrait of our wonderful chairman, Herb Bonner, which will be a permanent reminder to all those who will follow us on this committee of the work which Herb did as our chairman.
I have served here with many chairmen. I see another great portrait hanging here on the wall. I know you remember when we unveiled that. That is a portrait of Schuyler Otis Bland. I was hoping Mrs. Bland would be here but I understand she was not able to come. Mr. Bland was one of the outstanding chairmen. Everybody knew that and loved and respected him.
Here is a man from down in good old North Carolina, a State half as good at least as Alabama. We hang his portrait here. He has been chairman for only 3 years. What will we do for him when he has been here as long as Sam Rayburn has? I hope that Herb will stay here that long. 152ee80cbc
