O Lord, Who Came to Earth to Show

Author: Milburn Price Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #655 (2010) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Hymnal Title: Celebrating Grace Hymnal Lyrics: 1 O Lord, who came to earth to show Your way of truth and love, who ministered to varied needs with grace sent from above, equip us likewise now to go, and thus fulfill Your word compelling us to minister: give us Your love, O Lord. 2 Enable us to hear the cries of those who, in despair, call out for someone who will hear, for someone who will care. Then, hearing, let us actively pursue with one accord a ministry which meets their needs: give us Your love, O Lord. 3 With superficial gestures, we have tried to comfort those who struggle for fulfillment in the midst f all life's throes. Invest in us a higher cause which, shown by Christ, our Lord, makes us to seek their deepest needs: give us Your love, O Lord. 4 "Your kingdom come on earth," we pray with hearts which are resolved, and yet, in human problems still we fail to be involved; the ministries of comfort, peace, and hope may we afford to all who struggle in their needs: give us Your love, O Lord.

Ralph Vaughan Williams

1872 - 1958 Hymnal Title: Baptist Hymnal (1975 ed) Arranger of "FOREST GREEN" in Baptist Hymnal (1975 ed) Through his composing, conducting, collecting, editing, and teaching, Ralph Vaughan Williams (b. Down Ampney, Gloucestershire, England, October 12, 1872; d. Westminster, London, England, August 26, 1958) became the chief figure in the realm of English music and church music in the first half of the twentieth century. His education included instruction at the Royal College of Music in London and Trinity College, Cambridge, as well as additional studies in Berlin and Paris. During World War I he served in the army medical corps in France. Vaughan Williams taught music at the Royal College of Music (1920-1940), conducted the Bach Choir in London (1920-1927), and directed the Leith Hill Music Festival in Dorking (1905-1953). A major influence in his life was the English folk song. A knowledgeable collector of folk songs, he was also a member of the Folksong Society and a supporter of the English Folk Dance Society. Vaughan Williams wrote various articles and books, including National Music (1935), and composed numerous arrangeĀ­ments of folk songs; many of his compositions show the impact of folk rhythms and melodic modes. His original compositions cover nearly all musical genres, from orchestral symphonies and concertos to choral works, from songs to operas, and from chamber music to music for films. Vaughan Williams's church music includes anthems; choral-orchestral works, such as Magnificat (1932), Dona Nobis Pacem (1936), and Hodie (1953); and hymn tune settings for organ. But most important to the history of hymnody, he was music editor of the most influential British hymnal at the beginning of the twentieth century, The English Hymnal (1906), and coeditor (with Martin Shaw) of Songs of Praise (1925, 1931) and the Oxford Book of Carols (1928).
