'Glory to God!' all heav'n with joy is ringing

Author: John E. Bowers, b. 1923 Hymnal: Common Praise #52 (2000) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Lyrics: 1 'Glory to God!' all heav'n with joy is ringing; angels proclaim the gospel of Christ's birth, 'Glory to God!', and still their song is bringing good news of God incarnate here on earth. 2 Lowly in wonder shepherds kneel before him, no gift to bring save love of heart and mind: come like those shepherds, sing his praise, adore him, a babe so weak, yet Saviour of mankind. 3 Humble, yet regal, wise men kneel before him, gold, incense, myrrh, their gifts to Christ they bring: come like those wise men, sing his praise, adore him a babe so poor and modest, yet a King. 4 Though now no crib or cradle is concealing Jesus our Lord in that far-distant shrine, Christ at each eucharist is still revealing his very self in forms of bread and wine.

Richard Runciman Terry

1865 - 1938 Person Name: Richard R. Terry Composer of "HIGHWOOD" in Anglican Hymns Old and New (Rev. and Enl.) Terry, Richard R., was born at Morpeth, Jan. 3, 1868, and was Tate Choral Scholar at King's College, Cambridge. In 1896 he became organist and music-master at Downside R. C. College and Abbey, Bath; and in 1901 organist and director of the choir at Westminster Cathedral (R. C.) London. He contributed to A. E. Tozer's Catholic Hymns, 1898, thirteen tunes and the words of two hymns:— 1. Christ, the Lord, is my true Shepherd. Ps. xxiii. 2. Peaceful eve, so still and holy. Christmas Carol. It is marked as D. C. B., i.e. for Downside Coll., Bath. The tune by Mr. Tozor was published in 1881 to a carol beginning with the same first line, but otherwise entirely different. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, New Supplement (1907)
