As Spring The Winter Doth Succeed

Author: Anne Bradstreet Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8651 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 As spring the winter doth succeed The naked trees with leaves are dressed, The blackened earth is clothed in green, And all with brightening joy is blessed. 2 My sun returns with healing wings, My soul and body do rejoice; My heart exalts and praises sings To Him that heard my wailing voice. 3 My winters past, my storms are gone, And former clouds seem now all fled; But if they must eclipse again I’ll run where I was succorèd. 4 I have a shelter from the storm, A shadow from the fainting heat, For I have access to His throne; Who is a God so wondrous great? 5 O hast Thou made my pilgrimage Thus pleasant, fair, so sweet and good; Blessed me in youth and elder age My Baca made a springing flood. 6 Studying, I ask, what I shall do To show my duty with delight? All I can give is but mine own And at the most a simple mite. Languages: English Tune Title: WOODWORTH

Born at York, ME, he was raised on his father's farm, with rainy days spent in a shoe-shop, the custom in those days. He loved music and spent spare hours practicing any music he could find. In 1830 the family moved to Boston, where he first saw and heard an organ and piano, and other instruments. He became an organist at 15. He attended Dr. Lowell Mason's singing classes, and later sang in the Bowdoin Street church choir. Dr. Mason became a good friend. He made $100/yr playing the organ, and was still in Dr. Mason's choir. Dr. Mason gave him a chance to teach singing in Machias, ME, which he accepted. He returned to Boston the following year to marry Adra Esther Fessenden in 1838, then relocated to Saint John, New Brunswick. Where his efforts were not much appreciated, so he returned to Boston. He was offered charge of music and organ at the First Baptist Church of Brooklyn. That led to similar work at the Baptist Tabernacle, New York City, where he also started a singing class. That started singing schools in various parts of the city, and eventually resulted in music festivals, held at the Broadway Tabernacle, a prominent city event. He conducted a 1000 children choir there, which resulted in music being taught as regular study in public schools of the city. He began writing music and publishing it. In 1847 he went with his wife to Europe to study with some of the music masters in London and also Germany. He attended Mendelssohn funeral while there. He went to Switzerland before returning to the states, and upon returning, commenced teaching, conducting conventions, composing, and editing music books. In 1851, with his brother, Edward, he began manufacturring Bradbury pianos, which became popular. Also, he had a small office in one of his warehouses in New York and often went there to spend time in private devotions. As a professor, he edited 59 books of sacred and secular music, much of which he wrote. He attended the Presbyterian church in Bloomfield, NJ, for many years later in life. He contracted tuberculosis the last two years of his life. John Perry
