Go to Thy Rest in Peace

Hymnal: Pearls of Praise #132 (1893) Lyrics: 1 Go to thy rest in peace, And soft by thy repose; Thy toils are o’er, thy troubles cease, From earthly cares in sweet release Thine eyelids gently close, Thine eyelids gently close. 2 Go to thy peaceful rest, For thee we need not weep, Since thou art now among the blest, No more by sin and sorrow pressed, But hushed in quiet sleep, But hushed in quiet sleep. 3 Go to thy rest, and while Thy absence we deplore, One thought our sorrow shall beguile, That soon, with a celestial smile, We’ll meet to part no more, We’ll meet to part no more. Scripture: Revelation 14:13 Tune Title: [Go to thy rest in peace]

H. R. Palmer

1834 - 1907 Composer of "[Go to thy rest in peace]" in Life-Time Hymns Palmer, Horatio Richmond, MUS. DOC, was born April 26, 1834. He is the author of several works on the theory of music; and the editor of some musical editions of hymnbooks. To the latter he contributed numerous tunes, some of which have attained to great popularity, and 5 of which are in I. D. Sankey's Sacred Songs and Solos, London, 1881. His publications include Songs of Love for the Bible School; and Book of Anthems, the combined sale of which has exceeded one million copies. As a hymnwriter he is known by his "Yield not to temptation," which was written in 1868, and published in the National Sunday School Teachers' Magazine, from which it passed, with music by the author, into his Songs of Love, &c, 1874, and other collections. In America its use is extensive. Dr. Palmer's degree was conferred by the University of Chicago in 1880. -- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907) =============== Palmer, H. R., p. 877, i. The hymn "Would you gain the best in life" (Steadfastness), in the Congregational Sunday School Supplement, 1891, the Council School Hymn Book, 1905, and others, is by this author. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, New Supplement (1907)

Anonymous

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Go to thy rest in peace" in The Brethren Hymnody In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
