Thy rule, O Christ, begin! Break with Thine iron rod The tyrannies of sin! 2 Where is Thy reign of peace, And purity, and love? When shall all hatred cease, As in the realms above? 3 When comes the promised time That war shall be no more, Oppression, lust, and crime Shall flee Thy face before? 4 We pray Thee, Lord, arise, And come in Thy great might; Revive our longing eyes, Which languish for Thy sight. 5 O'er heathen lands afar Thick darkness broodeth yet: Arise, O morning Star, Arise, and never set. Amen. Topics: General; Faith; Intercession for the Church Languages: English Tune Title: [Thy kingdom come, O God!]

Joseph Barnby

1838 - 1896 Person Name: Sir Joseph Barnby Composer of "VIA RECTE" in The Evangelical Hymnal Joseph Barnby (b. York, England, 1838; d. London, England, 1896) An accomplished and popular choral director in England, Barby showed his musical genius early: he was an organist and choirmaster at the age of twelve. He became organist at St. Andrews, Wells Street, London, where he developed an outstanding choral program (at times nicknamed "the Sunday Opera"). Barnby introduced annual performances of J. S. Bach's St. John Passion in St. Anne's, Soho, and directed the first performance in an English church of the St. Matthew Passion. He was also active in regional music festivals, conducted the Royal Choral Society, and composed and edited music (mainly for Novello and Company). In 1892 he was knighted by Queen Victoria. His compositions include many anthems and service music for the Anglican liturgy, as well as 246 hymn tunes (published posthumously in 1897). He edited four hymnals, including The Hymnary (1872) and The Congregational Sunday School Hymnal (1891), and coedited The Cathedral Psalter (1873). Bert Polman
