Wilt Thou Hear the Voice of Praise?

Author: Caroline L. Rice Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7699 Meter: 7.7.7.5 D First Line: Wilt Thou hear the voice of praise Lyrics: 1. Wilt Thou hear the voice of praise Which the little children raise, Thou who art, from endless days, Glorious God of all? While the circling year has sped, Thou hast heavenly blessings shed, Like the dew, upon each head; Still on Thee we call. 2. Still Thy constant care bestow; Let us each in wisdom grow, And in favor while below, With the God above. In our hearts the Spirit mild, Which adorned the Savior child, Gently soothe each impulse wild To the sway of love. 3. Thine example, kept in view, Jesus, help us to pursue; Lead us all our journey through By Thy guiding hand; And when life on earth is o’er, Where the blest dwell evermore, May we praise Thee and adore, An unbroken band.

William J. Kirkpatrick

1838 - 1921 Person Name: Wm. J. Kirkpatrick Composer of "FRENCH" in Songs of Praise and Service William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia. Bert Polman

Joseph Barnby

1838 - 1896 Person Name: Jo­seph Barn­by, 1838-1896 Composer of "CHILDREN'S PRAISE" in The Cyber Hymnal Joseph Barnby (b. York, England, 1838; d. London, England, 1896) An accomplished and popular choral director in England, Barnby 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
