Give glory to the Lord
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Give glory to the Lord, Extol his holy name Lyrics:
Give glory to the Lord,
Extol His holy name,
Let men and angels' tongues record
His everlasting fame.
While we His love relate,
Who saves the lost from hell,
O ye who kept your first estate,
His sovereign power forth tell!
Among our fallen race,
The living yet are we;
This is our day,--our day of grace,
The last we e'er may see.
Confess we then our sin,
Repent, believe and pray;
95
Strive the straight gate to enter in,
And force the narrow way.
The Lord delights to bless
The valiant for the truth,
And crown their age with happiness,
Who serve Him from their youth.
Angels, while ye on high
Rejoice o'er ransom'd men;
"The lost is found," we too would cry,
"The dead alive again."

Give to the Winds Your Fears
Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #55 (2010) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Give to the winds your fears,
hope, and be undismayed;
God hears your sighs and counts your tears,
God shall lift up your head.
2 Through waves and clouds and storms
He gently clears the way;
wait for His time, so shall the night
soon end in joyous day.
3 Far, far above your thought
His counsel shall appear,
when fully He the work has wrought
that caused your needless fear.
4 Leave to His sovereign will
to choose and to command:
with wonder filled, you then shall know
how wise, how strong His hand.

Henry J. Gauntlett
1805 - 1876 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Harmonizer of "DURHAM" in Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church Henry J. Gauntlett (b. Wellington, Shropshire, July 9, 1805; d. London, England, February 21, 1876) When he was nine years old, Henry John Gauntlett (b. Wellington, Shropshire, England, 1805; d. Kensington, London, England, 1876) became organist at his father's church in Olney, Buckinghamshire. At his father's insistence he studied law, practicing it until 1844, after which he chose to devote the rest of his life to music. He was an organist in various churches in the London area and became an important figure in the history of British pipe organs. A designer of organs for William Hill's company, Gauntlett extended the organ pedal range and in 1851 took out a patent on electric action for organs. Felix Mendelssohn chose him to play the organ part at the first performance of Elijah in Birmingham, England, in 1846. Gauntlett is said to have composed some ten thousand hymn tunes, most of which have been forgotten. Also a supporter of the use of plainchant in the church, Gauntlett published the Gregorian Hymnal of Matins and Evensong (1844).

Fred Pratt Green
1903 - 2000 Person Name: F. Pratt Green, b.1903 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Author of "The first day of the week" in The Book of Praise The name of the Rev. F. Pratt Green is one of the best-known of the contemporary school of hymnwriters in the British Isles. His name and writings appear in practically every new hymnal and "hymn supplement" wherever English is spoken and sung. And now they are appearing in American hymnals, poetry magazines, and anthologies.
Mr. Green was born in Liverpool, England, in 1903. Ordained in the British Methodist ministry, he has been pastor and district superintendent in Brighton and York, and now served in Norwich. There he continued to write new hymns "that fill the gap between the hymns of the first part of this century and the 'far-out' compositions that have crowded into some churches in the last decade or more."
