The two hymns are "My soul, weigh not thy life" (The Good Fight of Faith) and "My soul, it is thy God" (The Christian Race). He also wrote "My soul, whene'er thou shalt arrive", published in about 1840. These hymns appeared in 56, 21, and 2 hymnals, respectively, that were published during 1840 to 1920.He wrote five sermons that were published as booklets: Our Banners Set Up (1861), God in the Strife (1861), On the Death of President Lincoln (1865), On the Death of Rowell Park Perry and Lemuel Grosvenor Perry (1867), and God's Ownership of the Sea (1869)He was "active" in the 1845-founded Rhode Island Institute of Instruction (predecessor of the National Education Association Rhode Island).He was the commencement speaker at Wheaton Female Seminary (now Wheaton College) in 1864.
