Father, Who Hast Gathered
Author: Ernest E. Dugmore Meter: 6.5.6.5 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: [Substitute her for him if appropriate.]
1. Father, who hast gathered
This dear child to rest,
Unto Thee we yield him,
Sure Thou knowest best.
2. Thou, O Lord, who gavest,
Dost Thine own reclaim;
Thou, O Lord, hast taken—
Blessèd still Thy name!
3. Thine by right creative,
By redemption Thine,
By regeneration
And the holy sign.
4. Thou who didst endow him
With baptismal grace,
Now in love hast brought him
To behold Thy face.
5. Safe from all earth’s sorrow,
Safe from all its pains,
Now this child of Adam,
Paradise regains:
6. Safe from all temptation,
Safe from fear of sin,
Through the blood of sprinkling
Holy, bright and clean.
7. Lay we this dear body
In the earth to sleep,
His sweet soul commending
Unto Thee to keep:
8. Looking for the dawning
Of that deathless day,
When all earthly shadows
Shall have fled away.
9. Only grant us, Father,
Courage in our strife,
And with him a portion
In unending life. Used With Tune: EUDOXIA Text Sources: Hymns of Adoration (Parkstone, England: 1900)

S. Baring-Gould
1834 - 1924 Person Name: Sabine Baring-Gould Composer of "EUDOXIA" in The Cyber Hymnal Baring-Gould, Sabine, M.A., eldest son of Mr. Edward Baring-Gould, of Lew Trenchard, Devon, b. at Exeter, Jan. 28, 1834, and educated at Clare College, Cambridge, B.A. 1857, M.A. 1860. Taking Holy Orders in 1864, he held the curacy of Horbury, near Wakefield, until 1867, when he was preferred to the incumbency of Dalton, Yorks. In 1871 he became rector of East Mersea, Essex, and in 1881 rector of Lew Trenchard, Devon. His works are numerous, the most important of which are, Lives of the Saints, 15 vols., 1872-77; Curious Myths of the Middle Ages, 2 series, 1866-68; The Origin and Development of Religious Belief, 2 vols., 1869-1870; and various volumes of sermons. His hymns, original and translated, appeared in the Church Times; Hymns Ancient & Modern, 1868 and 1875; The People's Hymnal, 1867, and other collections, the most popular being "Onward, Christian soldiers," "Daily, daily sing the praises," the translation "Through the night of doubt and sorrow," and the exquisite Easter hymn, "On the Resurrection Morning."
His latest effort in hymnology is the publication of original Church Songs, 1884, of which two series have been already issued. In the Sacristy for Nov. 1871, he also contributed nine carols to an article on "The Noels and Carols of French Flanders.” These have been partially transferred to Chope's and Staniforth's Carol Books, and also to his Church Songs.

Coll., Oxford; B.A. 1867; M.A. 1869. Ordained in 1867, he held the curacy of St. Peter's, Vauxhall, 1867-72, when he became Vicar of Parkstone 1872, and Canon of Sarum and Preb. of Gillingham Major 1900. He published in 1884 Gospel Idylls and Other Sacred Verses; and in 1900 Hymns of Adoration for Church Use. Of his hymns the following were included in the 1904 edition of Hymns Ancient & Modern:--
1. Almighty Father of all things that he. No. 29 of Hymns of Adoration, 1900, as "For the Opening of an Exhibition." Abbreviated and slightly altered in Hymns Ancient & Modern to adapt it as a "General" hymn. It was originally composed for and used at a small industrial Exhibition held in his Parish.

These excerpts from Canon Dugmore's work are by no means the best in the book. Com¬pilers of sacred song should give heed to this fact.
