Hear our prayer, O Heavenly Father

Author: Harriett Parr Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #647 (1894) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Hear our prayer, O Heavenly Father, Ere we lay us down to sleep; Bid Thine angels pure and holy, Round our bed their vigils keep. 2 Heavy though our sins, Thy mercy Far outweighs them every one; Down before the cross we cast them, Trusting in thy help alone. 3 Keep us through this night of peril Safe beneath its sheltering shade; Take us to Thy rest, we pray Thee, When our pilgrimage is made. 4 None can measure out Thy patience By the span of human thought; None can bound the tender mercies Which Thy holy Son has bought. 5 Pardon all our past transgressions, Give us strength for days to come; Guide and guard us with Thy blessing, Till Thine angles bear us home. Amen. Topics: Home and Personal Use Languages: English Tune Title: [Hear our prayer, O Heavenly Father]

Ludwig van Beethoven

1770 - 1827 Person Name: Beethoven Composer of "SARDIS" in Worship Song A giant in the history of music, Ludwig van Beethoven (b. Bonn, Germany, 1770; d. Vienna, Austria, 1827) progressed from early musical promise to worldwide, lasting fame. By the age of fourteen he was an accomplished viola and organ player, but he became famous primarily because of his compositions, including nine symphonies, eleven overtures, thirty piano sonatas, sixteen string quartets, the Mass in C, and the Missa Solemnis. He wrote no music for congregational use, but various arrangers adapted some of his musical themes as hymn tunes; the most famous of these is ODE TO JOY from the Ninth Symphony. Although it would appear that the great calamity of Beethoven's life was his loss of hearing, which turned to total deafness during the last decade of his life, he composed his greatest works during this period.

In 1826 he became a chorister of the Chapel Royal and sang at the coronation of King William IV in Westminster Abbey.

In 1845 he married Sarah Lovett, and they had four sons and five daughters. He was closely associated with the Bach Society and was organist for the first English performances of Bach’s St. Matthew Passion. In 1855 he collaborated with Edward Rimbault publishing “The organ, its history and construction” (3 editions 1855-70-77). In 1864 he was one of the founders of the “College of organists”. In 1882 he received an honorary Doctorate of Music from the Archbishop of Canterbury. He composed 30+ hymn tunes and some psalm chants, used by the Church of England. He died in London, England.
