Praise The Lord—His Power Confess

Author: William Wrangham, 1784-1832 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9439 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Praise the Lord—His power confess; Praise Him in His holiness; Praise Him as the theme inspires, Praise Him as His fame requires. Let the trumpets lofty sound; Spread its loudest notes around; Let the harp unite in praise, With the sacred minstrel’s lays. 2 Let the organ join to bless God, the Lord of righteousness; Tune your voice to spread the fame Of the great Jehovah’s name. All who dwell beneath His light, In His praise, your hearts unite, While the stream of song is poured, Praise and magnify the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: MARSDEN

George Frideric Handel

1685 - 1759 Person Name: Goerge Frederick Handel Composer of "MARSDEN" in The Cyber Hymnal George Frideric Handel (b. Halle, Germany, 1685; d. London, England, 1759) became a musician and composer despite objections from his father, who wanted him to become a lawyer. Handel studied music with Zachau, organist at the Halle Cathedral, and became an accomplished violinist and keyboard performer. He traveled and studied in Italy for some time and then settled permanently in England in 1713. Although he wrote a large number of instrumental works, he is known mainly for his Italian operas, oratorios (including Messiah, 1741), various anthems for church and royal festivities, and organ concertos, which he interpolated into his oratorio performances. He composed only three hymn tunes, one of which (GOPSAL) still appears in some modern hymnals. A number of hymnal editors, including Lowell Mason, took themes from some of Handel's oratorios and turned them into hymn tunes; ANTIOCH is one example, long associated with “Joy to the World.” Bert Polman

F. E. Belden

1858 - 1945 Composer of "ROOT" in The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book Belden was born in Battle Creek, Michigan in 1858. He began writing music in his late teenage years after moving to California with his family. For health reasons he later moved to Colorado. He returned to Battle Creek with his wife in the early 1880s, and there he became involved in Adventist Church publishing. F. E. Belden wrote many hymn tunes, gospel songs, and related texts in the early years of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Belden was able to rapidly write both music and poetry together which enabled him to write a song to fit a sermon while it was still being delivered. He also wrote songs for evang­el­ist Bil­ly Sun­day. Though Belden’s later years were marred by misunderstandings with the church leadership over his royalties, he did donate his papers and manuscripts to the church’s seminary at his death. He died on December 2, 1945 in Battle Creek, Michigan. N.N., Hymnary. Source: http://www.hymntime.com/tch/bio/b/e/l/belden_fe.htm
