Cradled All Lowly

Author: Henry Brougham Farnie Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Cradled all lowly, Behold the Savior Child! A being holy, In dwelling rude and wild; Ne’er yet was regal state Of monarch proud and great, Who grasped a nation’s fate, So glorious as the manger bed Of Bethlehem. 2 No longer sorrow As without hope, O earth! A brighter morrow Dawned with that Infant’s birth. Our sins were great and sore, But these the Savior bore, And God was wroth no more; His own Son was the Child that lay In Bethlehem. 3 Babe weak and wailing, In lowly village stall, Thy glory veiling, Thou cam’st to die for all. The sacrifice is done, The world’s atonement won, Till time its course hath run, O Jesus, Savior, Morning Star Of Bethlehem. Used With Tune: [Cradled all lowly] Text Sources: The Children's Hymnal, by John Ireland Tucker (New York: F. J.Huntington and Company, 1874)

Authors, composers, editors, etc.

Anonymous

Person Name: Inconnu Author of "Dans Cette Étable" in The Cyber Hymnal 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.

Charles F. Gounod

1818 - 1893 Person Name: Charles François Gounod Composer of "[Cradled all lowly]" in The Cyber Hymnal Charles F. Gounod (b. Paris, France, 1818; d. St. Cloud, France, 1893) was taught initially by his pianist mother. Later he studied at the Paris Conservatory, won the "Grand Prix de Rome" in 1839, and continued his musical training in Vienna, Berlin, and Leipzig. Though probably most famous for his opera Faust (1859) and other instrumental music (including his Meditation sur le Prelude de Bach, to which someone added the Ave Maria text for soprano solo), Gounod also composed church music-four Masses, three Requiems, and a Magnificat. His smaller works for church use were published as Chants Sacres. When he lived in England (1870-1875), Gounod became familiar with British cathedral music and served as conductor of what later became the Royal Choral Society. Bert Polman

Maurice F. Bell

1862 - 1947 Translator of "Bethlehem" in The Oxford Book of Carols Bell, Maurice Frederick, M.A., son of G. W. Bell, barrister at law, was born in London, Sept. 3, 1862. He graduated from Hertford Coll., Oxford (B.A. 1884, M.A. 1887), was ordained D. 1885, P. 1886, and has been since 1904 Vicar of St. Mark, Regent's Park, London. He contributed to The English Hymnal, 1906, four translations (60, 68, 624, 634), and "O dearest Lord, by all adored" (Close of Festival), 1906. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.] --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, New Supplement (1907)
