Blest Advocate and Friend,
Be near us in the stress of life,
Thy heavenly aid to lend,
For Thou the Spirit art
Of Life and Light and Love,
Our death, our doubt and sin
Thy coming shall remove.

Thou promised guide divine,
On all the journey of our life
Command Thy light to shine.
So shall we never stray
From ways our Master trod,
So shall our pathway lead
To rest, to home and God.

Thou searching, cleansing fire;
Come purge away the dross of sin,
Make pure the heart's desire.
Then kindle in us zeal,
And crown with tongues of flame,
With Pentecostal power
We shall the word proclaim.
4 O Holy Spirit, Comforter,
Convict the world of sin,
Reveal the righteousness of God,
The reign of Christ bring in.
Then shall the kings of earth
Their scepters sway in peace,
And war with all its woe
From all the earth shall cease.
5 O Holy Spirit, Comforter,
Now glorify the Son;
Now save and sanctify and seal,
And make Thy people one.
So shall the church on earth
Be as the Church above;
So shall the world become
A paradise of love. Languages: English Tune Title: PARADISE

Joseph Haydn
1732 - 1809 Person Name: F. J. Haydn, 1732-1809 Topics: Comforter, Holy Ghost, the; Holy Spirit Comforter, the Arranger of "CREATION" in Methodist Hymn and Tune Book Franz Joseph Haydn (b. Rohrau, Austria, 1732; d. Vienna, Austria, 1809) Haydn's life was relatively uneventful, but his artistic legacy was truly astounding. He began his musical career as a choirboy in St. Stephen's Cathedral, Vienna, spent some years in that city making a precarious living as a music teacher and composer, and then served as music director for the Esterhazy family from 1761 to 1790. Haydn became a most productive and widely respected composer of symphonies, chamber music, and piano sonatas. In his retirement years he took two extended tours to England, which resulted in his "London" symphonies and (because of G. F. Handel's influence) in oratorios. Haydn's church music includes six great Masses and a few original hymn tunes. Hymnal editors have also arranged hymn tunes from various themes in Haydn's music.

1841 - 1897 Person Name: Clara H. Scott, 1841-1897 Topics: Comforter Author of "Open My Eyes, That I May See" in Worship and Service Hymnal Clara Harriett Fiske Jones Scott USA 1841-1897. Born at Elk Grove, IL, daughter of a farmer, the family moved to Chicago in 1856. Clara enrolled in the first Chicago Musical Institute, after founders, Chauncy M Cady and William Bradbury, opened it in 1858. Following her graduation from the program, she found employment at the new Lyons Girl’s Seminary (also founded in 1858) in Lyons, IA. While working there, she met Henry Clay Scott, who worked for Scott & Ovington Brothers wholesale crockery company. The two married in 1861 in McGregor, IA. They had two daughters, Medora and Mary. The family moved to Austin, IL, near Chicago in the 1870s. She become a composer, hymnwriter, and publisher. She was the first woman to publish a volume of anthems, ‘The Royal anthem book’ in 1882. Horatio Palmer, a friend, helped her publish her songs. She issued three collections of songs. In 1895 she and her husband, now an invalid, moved to Chicago. In 1897 she was returning to her friend’s house after attending a funeral in DuBuque, IA. She was driving a horse-drawn buggy with two friends, Martha Hay and D D Myers. The buggy’s hold-back strap snapped, spooking the horse, who raced forward, colliding with a coping stone, causing the buggy to roll. Clara and Martha were thrown out and both died instantly. The third lady, D D, was severly injured. Clara’s funeral was well-attended by music writers, teachers, professors, publishers, and friends. Two of her own compositions were sung by a quartet of close friends. She died at Dubuque, IA.

George Ratcliffe Woodward
1848 - 1934 Person Name: George Ratcliffe Woodward, 1848-1934 Topics: Holy Spirit Comforter Harmonizer of "PUER NOBIS NASCITUR" in The Book of Praise Educated at Caius College in Cambridge, England, George R. Woodward (b. Birkenhead, Cheshire, England, 1848; d. Highgate, London, England, 1934) was ordained in the Church of England in 1874. He served in six parishes in London, Norfolk, and Suffolk. He was a gifted linguist and translator of a large number of hymns from Greek, Latin, and German. But Woodward's theory of translation was a rigid one–he held that the translation ought to reproduce the meter and rhyme scheme of the original as well as its contents. This practice did not always produce singable hymns; his translations are therefore used more often today as valuable resources than as congregational hymns. With Charles Wood he published three series of The Cowley Carol Book (1901, 1902, 1919), two editions of Songs of Syon (1904, 1910), An Italian Carol Book (1920), and the Cambridge Carol Book
