Come, Let Us Praise the Lord

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #95A (2012) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Lyrics: 1 Come, let us praise the Lord, with joy our God acclaim, his greatness tell abroad and bless his saving name. Lift high your songs before his throne to whom alone all praise belongs. 2 Our God of matchless worth, our King beyond compare, the deepest bounds of earth, the hills, are in his care. He all decrees, who by his hand prepared the land and formed the seas. 3 In worship bow the knee, our glorious God confess; the great Creator, he, the Lord our Righteousness. He reigns unseen: his flock he feeds and gently leads in pastures green. 4 Come, hear his voice today, receive what love imparts; his holy will obey and harden not your hearts. His ways are best and lead at last, all troubles past, to perfect rest.

He composed over fifty hymn tunes and edited The Scottish Hymnal (1872 edition) and Wordsworth's Hymns for the Holy Year (1862) as well as the periodical Parish Choir (1840-1851). Bert Polman

John Darwall

1732 - 1789 Composer of "DARWALL" in The Worshiping Church John Darwall (b. Haughton, Staffordshire, England, 1731; d. Walsall, Staffordshire, England, 1789) The son of a pastor, he attended Manchester Grammar School and Brasenose College, Oxford, England (1752-1756). He became the curate and later the vicar of St. Matthew's Parish Church in Walsall, where he remained until his death. Darwall was a poet and amateur musician. He composed a soprano tune and bass line for each of the 150 psalm versifications in the Tate and Brady New Version of the Psalms of David (l696). In an organ dedication speech in 1773 Darwall advocated singing the "Psalm tunes in quicker time than common [in order that] six verses might be sung in the same space of time that four generally are."
