Two of her texts are "What meaneth this, this strange display?" (see Songs of Love and Praise, No.4 , 1897 and Praise Hymns, 1898) and "Are you faithful to the work?" (see Songs of Help, 1917). In 1906 she married the Rev. Dr. John Talmadge Bergen, a minister in the Reformed Church of America. She was his second wife.
