Jesus, with thy church abide

Author: Thomas Benson Pollock Meter: 7.7.7.6 Appears in 102 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, with thy church abide, Be her Saviour, Lord, and Guide, While on earth her faith is tried: We beseech thee, hear us. 2 Keep her life and doctrine pure; Grant her patience to endure, Trusting in thy promise sure: We beseech thee, hear us. 3 May she one in doctrine be, One in truth and charity, Winning all to faith in thee: We beseech thee, hear us. 4 May she guide the poor and blind Seek the lost until she find, And the brokenhearted bind: We beseech thee, hear us. 5 Save her love from growing cold, Make her watchmen strong and bold, Fence her round, thy peaceful fold: We beseech thee, hear us. 6 May her lamp of truth be bright, Bid her bear aloft its light Through the realms of heathen night: We beseech thee, hear us. 7 Arm her soldiers with the cross, Brave to suffer toil or loss, Counting earthly gain but dross: We beseech thee, hear us. 8 May she holy triumphs win, Overthrow the hosts of sin, Gather all the nations in: We beseech thee, hear us. Amen.

Arthur Sullivan

1842 - 1900 Person Name: Sir Arthur Sullivan Meter: 7.7.7.6 Harmonizer of "LITANY No. 3" in The Book of Common Praise Arthur Seymour Sullivan (b Lambeth, London. England. 1842; d. Westminster, London, 1900) was born of an Italian mother and an Irish father who was an army band­master and a professor of music. Sullivan entered the Chapel Royal as a chorister in 1854. He was elected as the first Mendelssohn scholar in 1856, when he began his studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London. He also studied at the Leipzig Conservatory (1858-1861) and in 1866 was appointed professor of composition at the Royal Academy of Music. Early in his career Sullivan composed oratorios and music for some Shakespeare plays. However, he is best known for writing the music for lyrics by William S. Gilbert, which produced popular operettas such as H.M.S. Pinafore (1878), The Pirates of Penzance (1879), The Mikado (1884), and Yeomen of the Guard (1888). These operettas satirized the court and everyday life in Victorian times. Although he com­posed some anthems, in the area of church music Sullivan is best remembered for his hymn tunes, written between 1867 and 1874 and published in The Hymnary (1872) and Church Hymns (1874), both of which he edited. He contributed hymns to A Hymnal Chiefly from The Book of Praise (1867) and to the Presbyterian collection Psalms and Hymns for Divine Worship (1867). A complete collection of his hymns and arrangements was published posthumously as Hymn Tunes by Arthur Sullivan (1902). Sullivan steadfastly refused to grant permission to those who wished to make hymn tunes from the popular melodies in his operettas. Bert Polman

Anonymous

Person Name: Anon Meter: 7.7.7.6 Author of "Old Time Religion" in Redemption Songs In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Small Church Music

Meter: 7.7.7.6 Editors: Thomas Benson Pollock Description: The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid 1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano with organ versions. All recordings are in MP3 format. Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per month. The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse. Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs. Copyright notice: Rev. Clyde McLennan, performer in this collection, has assigned his performer rights in this collection to Hymnary.org. Non-commercial use of these recordings is permitted.
