At the forming of a church
Author: Dr. Doddridge Appears in 75 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 56:6 First Line: Great Father of mankind Lyrics: 1 Great Father of mankind,
We bless that wond'rous grace
Which could for Gentiles find,
Within thy courts a place:
How kind the care
Our God displays,
For us to raise
A house of prayer!
2 Tho' once estranged far,
We now approach the throne
For Jesus brings us near,
And makes our cause his own:
Strangers no more,
To thee we come,
And find our home,
And rest secure.
3 To thee our souls we join,
And love thy sacred name;
No more our own, but thine,
We triumph in thy claim;
Our father-king,
The covenant grace,
Our souls embrace,
Thy titles sing.
4 Here in thy house we fest
On dainties all divine;
And, while such sweets we taste,
With joy our faces shine;
Incense shall rise
From flames of love,
And God approve
The sacrifice.
5 May all the nations throng,
To worship in thy house;
And thou attend the song,
And smile upon their vows;
Indulgent still,
'Till earth conspire
To join the choir
On Zion's hill.

Marty Haugen
b. 1950 Person Name: Marty Haugen (b. 1950) Scripture: Isaiah 56:6-7 Author of "All are welcome" in Church Hymnary (4th ed.) Marty Haugen (b. 1950), is a prolific liturgical composer with many songs included in hymnals across the liturgical spectrum of North American hymnals and beyond, with many songs translated into different languages. He was raised in the American Lutheran Church, received a BA in psychology from Luther College, yet found his first position as a church musician in a Roman Catholic parish at a time when the Roman Catholic Church was undergoing profound liturgical and musical changes after Vatican II. Finding a vocation in that parish to provide accessible songs for worship, he continued to compose and to study, receiving an MA in pastoral studies at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul Minnesota. A number of liturgical settings were prepared for the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and more than 400 of his compositions are available from several publishers, especially GIA Publications, who also produced some 30 recordings of his songs. He is composer-in-residence at Mayflower Community Congregational Church in Minneapolis and continues to compose and travel to speak and teach at worship events around the world.

Jacques Berthier
1923 - 1994 Person Name: Jacques Berthier (1923-1994) Scripture: Isaiah 56:1-8 Composer of "SING, PRAISE" in Common Praise (1998) Jacques Berthier (b. Auxerre, Burgundy, June 27, 1923; d. June 27, 1994) A son of musical parents, Berthier studied music at the Ecole Cesar Franck in Paris. From 1961 until his death he served as organist at St. Ignace Church, Paris. Although his published works include numerous compositions for organ, voice, and instruments, Berthier is best known as the composer of service music for the Taizé community near Cluny, Burgundy. Influenced by the French liturgist and church musician Joseph Gelineau, Berthier began writing songs for equal voices in 1955 for the services of the then nascent community of twenty brothers at Taizé. As the Taizé community grew, Berthier continued to compose most of the mini-hymns, canons, and various associated instrumental arrangements, which are now universally known as the Taizé repertoire. In the past two decades this repertoire has become widely used in North American church music in both Roman Catholic and Protestant traditions.
