Kathryn T. Munro
1884 - 1964 Hymnal Number: d163 Author of "Hear thou, O Lord, a nation's prayer" in Divine Service Book for the Armed Forces Munro, Kathryn. (Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, July 9, 1884--January 21, 1964, Toronto, Ontario). Anglican. About 1910 she married J. Freeman Tupper, an Anglican priest stationed near her home in Nova Scotia. He served as a Canadian Army chaplain on the Western Front (1916-1919), then at Camp Borden, Ont. (1920-1923), moving on to pastorates in Sutton, Ont. (1924-1927) and Toronto (1927-1937), where he died. She continued to publish articles and books of verse under her maiden name, culminating in Collected Poems (Toronto: Burns and MacEachern, 1961). Her four stanzas (written 1928) beginning "O Thou within whose sure control" share the metre of "Eternal Father, strong to save" and were paired with ti in the United Church Hymnary (1930) and the Anglican Book of Common Praise (1938), only to fall out of use as air travel came to seem routine, rather than the awesome, dangerous adventure it was to her generation.
