John Kent (hymnist)

John Kent (December 1766 – November 15, 1843) was an English Calvinist Baptist writer of hymns.
== Biography ==

Kent was born of poor, religious parents in Devonshire, and was apprenticed to his father, a shipwright. He began to write verse in his youth, and worked hard to educate himself despite limited opportunities.〔Miller, Josiah. ''Singers and Songs of the Church''. Longmans, Green and Co., 1869, p. 333-4.〕 His hymns are first known to have been published in 1799 in Samuel Reece's ''A Selection of Evangelical Hymns'',〔John Kent - Hymnary. <http://www.hymnary.org/person/Kent_J1?sort=asc&order=Instances>〕 compiled for the Barrack-Street Baptist congregation near Plymouth Dockyard, where he and his father worked.〔
The first collection composed entirely of John Kent's hymns was his ''Original Gospel Hymns'', published in 1803; though he gained a reputation as a hymnist, he continued as a shipbuilder, writing hymns as his work allowed.〔 His collection passed through ten editions between 1803 and 1861, being expanded with new material as it became available.〔
Kent became blind by 60 years of age, and mostly ceased authoring new hymns until his death seventeen years later in 1843.〔 His last words were "I am accepted."
