Praise Waits in Zion, Lord, for Thee
Author: Sir J E Smith Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 64 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Praise waits in Zion, Lord for Thee:
Thy saints adore Thy holy name;
Thy creatures bend the obedient knee,
And humbly now Thy presence claim.
2 Eternal Source of truth and light.
To Thee we look, on Thee we call;
Lord, we are nothing in Thy sight,
But Thou to us art all in all.
3 Still may Thy children in Thy word
Their common trust and refuge see;
O bind us to each other, Lord,
By one great bond, – the love of Thee.
4 Here, at the portal of Thy house,
We leave our mortal hopes and fears;
Accept our prayers and bless our vows,
And dry our penitential tears.
5 So shall our sun of hope arise,
With brighter and still brighter ray,
Till Thou shalt bless our longing eyes
With beams of everlasting day.

Hymnal: The Hymnal #3 (1956) Lyrics: 1 Praise waits in Zion, Lord for thee;
Thy saints adore thy holy name;
Thy creatures bend the obedient knee,
And humbly thy protection claim.
2 Thy hand has raised us from the dust;
The breath of life thy Spirit gave.
Where bu in thee can mortals trust?
Who but our god has power to save?

We leave our mortal hopes and fears;
Answer our prayers and bless our vows,
Accept our praise and dry our tears.

With brighter and still brighter ray,
Till thou shalt bless our longing eyes
With beams of everlasting day.

John Warrington Hatton
1710 - 1793 Person Name: John Hatton Composer of "DUKE STREET" in The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal John Warrington Hatton (b. Warrington, England, c. 1710; d, St. Helen's, Lancaster, England, 1793) was christened in Warrington, Lancashire, England. He supposedly lived on Duke Street in Lancashire, from where his famous tune name comes. Very little is known about Hatton, but he was most likely a Presbyterian, and the story goes that he was killed in a stagecoach accident.

Joseph Haydn
1732 - 1809 Person Name: F. J. Haydn Composer of "HURSLEY" in Jewels of Praise Franz Joseph Haydn (b. Rohrau, Austria, 1732; d. Vienna, Austria, 1809) Haydn's life was relatively uneventful, but his artistic legacy was truly astounding. He began his musical career as a choirboy in St. Stephen's Cathedral, Vienna, spent some years in that city making a precarious living as a music teacher and composer, and then served as music director for the Esterhazy family from 1761 to 1790. Haydn became a most productive and widely respected composer of symphonies, chamber music, and piano sonatas. In his retirement years he took two extended tours to England, which resulted in his "London" symphonies and (because of G. F. Handel's influence) in oratorios. Haydn's church music includes six great Masses and a few original hymn tunes. Hymnal editors have also arranged hymn tunes from various themes in Haydn's music.

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Praise waits in Zion, Lord, for thee" in Devotional hymns 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.
