Edward Payson Hammond

1831 - 1910 Author of "Yes, we'll go and tell of Jesus" Hammond, Edward Payson, was born at Ellington, Connecticut, Sep. 1, 1831. He edited Hymns of Prayer and Praise, and is the author of a few pieces in that and other evangelistic hymnals, including "Christian [Children] go and tell Jesus," and "I feel like singing all the time." --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907) ================ Born: Sep­tem­ber 1, 1831, El­ling­ton, Con­nec­ti­cut. Died: Au­gust 14, 1910. Payson was con­vert­ed when he heard Alas, and Did My Sav­ior Bleed. He was ed­u­cat­ed at var­i­ous Amer­i­can schools, and fin­ished his the­o­lo­gic­al ed­u­ca­tion in Ed­in­burgh, Scot­land. In Scot­land, he started to preach in plac­es with no Chris­tian ac­tiv­i­ty, and he could see fruit of his work. At the end of 1861 he re­turned to Amer­i­ca and preached in Chi­ca­go, Il­li­nois, where he met Dwight Moody. In 1866 he and his wife tra­veled to Egypt, Pal­es­tine and Eur­ope. While in Pal­es­tine, he wrote the hymn Geth­sem­a­ne. He was ve­ry fond of preach­ing to the child­ren, and was called "The Child­ren’s Evan­gel­ist." His works in­clude: Hymns of Pray­er and Praise (ed­it­or) Jesus the Child­ren’s Friend, 1864 New Prais­es of Je­sus, 1869 The Ar­mor Bear­er: a Choice Col­lect­ion of New and Pop­u­lar Hymns and Mu­sic, with War­ren Bent­ley (New York: Will­iam A. Pond, cir­ca 1876) --hymntime.com/tch
