Thus spoke the Saviour of the world

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thus spoke the Saviour of the world, and rais'd his eyes to heav’n: To thee, O Father! Lord of all, eternal praise be given. 2 Thou to the pure and lowly heart hast heav’nly truth reveal'd; which from the self-conceited mind thy wisdom hath conceal'd. 3 Ev’n so! thou, Father, hast ordain'd thy high decree to stand; nor men nor angels may presume the reason to demand. 4 Thou only know’st the Son: from thee my kingdom I receive; and none the Father know but they who in the Son believe. 5 Come then to me, all ye who groan, with guilt and fears opprest; resign to me the willing heart, and I will give you rest. 6 Take up my yoke, and learn of me the meek and lowly mind; and thus your weary troubled souls repose and peace shall find. 7 For light and gentle is my yoke; the burden I impose Shall ease the heart, which groan'd before beneath a load of woes. Scripture: Matthew 11:25-29 Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM (FENWICK)

Richard Proulx

1937 - 2010 Arranger of "[Save us, save us, Savior of the world]" in RitualSong (2nd ed.) Richard Proulx (b. St. Paul, MN, April 3, 1937; d. Chicago, IL, February 18, 2010). A composer, conductor, and teacher, Proulx was director of music at the Holy Name Cathedral in Chicago, Illinois (1980-1997); before that he was organist and choirmaster at St. Thomas' Episcopal Church in Seattle, Washington. He contributed his expertise to the Roman Catholic Worship III (1986), The Episcopal Hymnal 1982, The United Methodist Hymnal (1989), and the ecumenical A New Hymnal for Colleges and Schools (1992). He was educated at the University of Minnesota, MacPhail College of Music in Minneapolis, Minnesota, St. John's Abbey in Collegeville, Minnesota, and the Royal School of Church Music in England. He composed more than 250 works. Bert Polman

Hugh Wilson

1766 - 1824 Composer of "MARTYRDOM" in The Cyber Hymnal Hugh Wilson (b. Fenwick, Ayrshire, Scotland, c. 1766; d. Duntocher, Scotland, 1824) learned the shoemaker trade from his father. He also studied music and mathematics and became proficient enough in various subjects to become a part-­time teacher to the villagers. Around 1800, he moved to Pollokshaws to work in the cotton mills and later moved to Duntocher, where he became a draftsman in the local mill. He also made sundials and composed hymn tunes as a hobby. Wilson was a member of the Secession Church, which had separated from the Church of Scotland. He served as a manager and precentor in the church in Duntocher and helped found its first Sunday school. It is thought that he composed and adapted a number of psalm tunes, but only two have survived because he gave instructions shortly before his death that all his music manuscripts were to be destroyed.
