Our Saviour, meek and lowly, came

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1096 (1886) Hymnal Title: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book Lyrics: 1 Our Saviour, meek and lowly, came, And taught his flock to be the same; He an example set, that they Might willingly his word obey. 2 For on that night he was betrayed, He for us all a pattern laid: Before his supper he did eat, He rose and washed his brethren's feet. 3 'Twas Christ, the Lord of earth and sky! He laid his royal garments by, And washed their feet, to show that we Should always kind and humble be. 4 But Peter said: "It shall not be! Thou shalt not stoop to washing me!" O, that no Christian here may say, "I'm too unworthy to obey!" 5 "You call me Lord, and Master too: Then do as I have done to you; All my commands and counsel heed, And show your love by word and deed. 6 "Ye shall be happy if ye know And do these things by faith, below; For I'll protect you till I come, And then I'll take you to your home."

William B. Bradbury

1816 - 1868 Hymnal Title: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book Composer of "ZEPHYR" in The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book William Bachelder Bradbury USA 1816-1868. Born at York, ME, he was raised on his father's farm, with rainy days spent in a shoe-shop, the custom in those days. He loved music and spent spare hours practicing any music he could find. In 1830 the family moved to Boston, where he first saw and heard an organ and piano, and other instruments. He became an organist at 15. He attended Dr. Lowell Mason's singing classes, and later sang in the Bowdoin Street church choir. Dr. Mason became a good friend. He made $100/yr playing the organ, and was still in Dr. Mason's choir. Dr. Mason gave him a chance to teach singing in Machias, ME, which he accepted. He returned to Boston the following year to marry Adra Esther Fessenden in 1838, then relocated to Saint John, New Brunswick. Where his efforts were not much appreciated, so he returned to Boston. He was offered charge of music and organ at the First Baptist Church of Brooklyn. That led to similar work at the Baptist Tabernacle, New York City, where he also started a singing class. That started singing schools in various parts of the city, and eventually resulted in music festivals, held at the Broadway Tabernacle, a prominent city event. He conducted a 1000 children choir there, which resulted in music being taught as regular study in public schools of the city. He began writing music and publishing it. In 1847 he went with his wife to Europe to study with some of the music masters in London and also Germany. He attended Mendelssohn funeral while there. He went to Switzerland before returning to the states, and upon returning, commenced teaching, conducting conventions, composing, and editing music books. In 1851, with his brother, Edward, he began manufacturring Bradbury pianos, which became popular. Also, he had a small office in one of his warehouses in New York and often went there to spend time in private devotions. As a professor, he edited 59 books of sacred and secular music, much of which he wrote. He attended the Presbyterian church in Bloomfield, NJ, for many years later in life. He contracted tuberculosis the last two years of his life. John Perry
