Author: Marian Froelich Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #780 Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: In the tops of the cedars and pines Lyrics: 1. In the tops of the cedars and pines,
A whisper was heard sweet and low;
And each branch as it hears and inclines,
Shakes off its fair burden of snow.
List!, the whisper says, Christmas is near;
The pines and the cedars all know
That they’ll aid in the joy and the cheer,
For this day they flourish and grow.
2. They have heard that their branches so green,
All ladened with silver and gold,
To enliven the fairy-like scene
Tinted candles abundant will hold.
While their fruits far more precious and rare,
Than summer or autumn can bring
Cause the children, so happy and fair,
Their praises to shout and to sing.
3. Then the whispering turns to a song,
And catching the welcoming cheer,
They, too, for the Christmas-day long,
And joy to leave forests so drear.
As the eve of the year nears its close,
When verdure and flowers seem dead,
Then the evergreen calm in repose,
To Christmas and gladness is wed. Languages: English Tune Title: FROELICH

Gideon Froelich
Person Name: G. Froelich Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Composer of "FROELICH" in The Cyber Hymnal Apparently the husband of hymn-writer Mrs. Marion or Marian Froelich, Prof. Gideon Froelich was organist both of Fifth Avenue Baptist Church and of Ahawath Chesed Synagogue, both in New York City. The rabbi of the synagogue, Isaac S. Moses, in the preface to the seventh edition of his The Sabbath-School Hymnal (New York: The Bloch Publishing Co., 1906), thanked Mrs. Marion Froelich for her help with English translations of German verse, and wrote:Prof. Gideon Froelich, whose genius has enriched this book with its finest melodies; no words are adequate to express the editor's gratitude and appreciation. For many years the organist of the above mentioned congregation, he has caught the spirit of Jewish melody, and the character of Jewish worship. His greater reward he will find in the joy which his compositions will produce in the hearts of thousands of Jewish children and in the gratitude of many worshipers in the Synagogue and the home.(source: AGO Founders Hymnal, p.96)
