Hymnal: Christ in Song #477 (1908) First Line: Working O Christ, with thee Lyrics: 1 Working, O Christ, with thee,
Working with thee,
Unworthy, sinful, weak,
Tho' we may be;
Our all to thee we give,
For thee alone we live,
And by thy grace achieve,
Working with thee.
2 Along the city's waste,
Working with thee,
Our eager footsteps haste,
Like thee to be;
The poor we gather in,
The outcasts raise from sin,
And labor souls to win,
Working with thee.
3 Saviour, we weary not,
Working with thee,
As hard as thine our lot
Can never be;
Our joy and comfort this,
"Thy grace sufficient is;"
This changes toil to bliss,
Working with thee.
4 So let us labor on,
Working with thee,
Till earth to thee is won,
From sin set free;
Till men, from shore to shore,
Receive thee, and adore,
And join us evermore,
Working with thee. Topics: Christ Winning Souls; Christ Winning Souls; Christ Winning Souls; Christ Winning Souls; Christ Winning Souls; Living His Life Winning Souls; Living His Life Winning Souls; Living His Life Winning Souls Languages: English Tune Title: [Working, O Christ, with thee]

Arthur Sullivan
1842 - 1900 Person Name: Arthur S. Sullivan (1842-1900) Composer of "ST. EDMUND (Sullivan)" in Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal Arthur Seymour Sullivan (b Lambeth, London. England. 1842; d. Westminster, London, 1900) was born of an Italian mother and an Irish father who was an army bandmaster and a professor of music. Sullivan entered the Chapel Royal as a chorister in 1854. He was elected as the first Mendelssohn scholar in 1856, when he began his studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London. He also studied at the Leipzig Conservatory (1858-1861) and in 1866 was appointed professor of composition at the Royal Academy of Music. Early in his career Sullivan composed oratorios and music for some Shakespeare plays. However, he is best known for writing the music for lyrics by William S. Gilbert, which produced popular operettas such as H.M.S. Pinafore (1878), The Pirates of Penzance (1879), The Mikado (1884), and Yeomen of the Guard (1888). These operettas satirized the court and everyday life in Victorian times. Although he composed some anthems, in the area of church music Sullivan is best remembered for his hymn tunes, written between 1867 and 1874 and published in The Hymnary (1872) and Church Hymns (1874), both of which he edited. He contributed hymns to A Hymnal Chiefly from The Book of Praise (1867) and to the Presbyterian collection Psalms and Hymns for Divine Worship (1867). A complete collection of his hymns and arrangements was published posthumously as Hymn Tunes by Arthur Sullivan (1902). Sullivan steadfastly refused to grant permission to those who wished to make hymn tunes from the popular melodies in his operettas.

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Working, O Christ, with thee" in The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book 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.
