Behold, Where In A Mortal Form

Author: William Enfield Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8413 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Behold, where in a mortal form Appears each grace divine! The virtues, all in Jesus met, With mildest radiance shine. 2 The largest love of human kind Inspired His godlike breast; In deeds of mercy, words of peace, His kindness was expressed. 3 To spread the rays of heav’nly light, To give the mourner joy, To preach glad tidings to the poor, Was His divine employ. 4 Lowly in heart, to all His friends A friend and servant found, He washed their feet, He wiped their tears, And healed each bleeding wound. 5 ’Midst keen reproach and cruel scorn, He meek and patient stood. His foes, ungrateful, sought His life; He labored for their good. 6 To God He left His righteous cause, And still His task pursued, While humble prayer, and holy faith, His fainting strength renewed. 7 At last, in hour of deep distress, Before His Father’s throne, With soul resigned He bowed, and said, "Thy will, not Mine, be done!" 8 Be Christ our pattern and our guide! His image may we bear! O may we tread His holy steps, His joys and glory share! Languages: English Tune Title: MANOAH

Thomas Tallis

1505 - 1585 Person Name: T. Tallis Composer of "TALLIS' ORDINAL" in The Primitive Methodist Church Hymnal Thomas Tallis (b. Leicestershire [?], England, c. 1505; d. Greenwich, Kent, England 1585) was one of the few Tudor musicians who served during the reigns of Henry VIII: Edward VI, Mary, and Elizabeth I and managed to remain in the good favor of both Catholic and Protestant monarchs. He was court organist and composer from 1543 until his death, composing music for Roman Catholic masses and Anglican liturgies (depending on the monarch). With William Byrd, Tallis also enjoyed a long-term monopoly on music printing. Prior to his court connections Tallis had served at Waltham Abbey and Canterbury Cathedral. He composed mostly church music, including Latin motets, English anthems, settings of the liturgy, magnificats, and two sets of lamentations. His most extensive contrapuntal work was the choral composition, "Spem in alium," a work in forty parts for eight five-voice choirs. He also provided nine modal psalm tunes for Matthew Parker's Psalter (c. 1561). Bert Polman

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
