Cradles in the oxen's stall,
Though the Lord and God of all:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.

In our work and in our play,
When we learn and when we pray.
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
3 When we lie asleep at night,
Ever may thy angels bright
Keep us safe till morning light:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
4 Make us brave without a fear,
Make us happy, full of cheer,
Sure that thou art always near:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
5 May we prize our Christian name,
May we guard it free from blame,
Fearing all that causes shame:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
6 May we ever try to be
From all sinful tempers free,
Pure and gentle, Lord, like thee:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.

Who didst in a manger lie,
Who upon the cross didst die:

Jesus, Once an Infant Small
Jesus, with Thy Church abide
Author: Thomas B. Pollock Hymnal: The Hymnal #473b (1916) Meter: 7.7.7.6 Lyrics:
Jesus, with thy Church abide,
Be her Savior, Lord, and Guide,
While on earth her faith is tried:
Keep her life and doctrine pure,
Help her, patient to endure,
Trusting in thy promise sure:
430
May her voice be ever clear,
Warning of a judgment near,
Telling of a Savior dear:
All her fettered powers release,
Bid our strife and envy cease,
Grant the heavenly gift of peace:
May she one in doctrine be,
One in truth and charity,
Winning all to faith in thee:
May she guide the poor and blind,
Seek the lost until she find,
And the broken-hearted bind:
Save her love from growing cold,
Make her watchmen strong and bold,
Fence her round, thy peaceful fold:
May her priests thy people feed,
Shepherds of the flock indeed,
Ready, where thou call'st, to lead:
Judge her not for work undone,
Judge her not for fields unwon,
Bless her works in thee begun:
All that she has lost, restore,
May her strength and zeal be more
Than in brightest days of yore:
431
Raise her to her calling high,
Let the nations far and nigh
Hear thy heralds' warning cry:
May her lamp of truth be bright,
Bid her bear aloft its light
Through the realms of heathen night:
May her scattered children be
From reproach of evil free,
Blameless witnesses for thee:
May she holy triumphs win,
Overthrow the hosts of sin,
Gather all the nations in:
May she soon all glorious be,
Spotless and from wrinkle free,
Pure, and bright, and worthy thee.
We beseech thee, hear us.
Amen.

Thomas Benson Pollock
1836 - 1896 Person Name: T. B. Pollock Author of "Hear us, Holy Jesus" in In Excelsis for School and Chapel Pollock, Thomas Benson, M.A., was born in 1836, and graduated at Trinity College, Dublin, B.A. 1859, M.A. 1863, where he also gained the Vice-Chancellor's Prize for English Verse in 1855. Taking Holy Orders in 1861, he was Curate of St. Luke's, Leek, Staffordshire; St. Thomas's, Stamford Hill, London; and St. Alban's, Birmingham. Mr. Pollock is a most successful writer of metrical Litanies. His Metrical Litanies for Special Services and General Use, Mowbray, Oxford, 1870, and other compositions of the same kind contributed subsequently to various collections, have greatly enriched modern hymnbooks. To the 1889 Supplemental Hymns to Hymns Ancient & Modern, Mr. Pollock contributed two hymns, “We are soldiers of Christ, Who is mighty to save" (Soldiers of Christ), and "We have not known Thee as we ought" (Seeking God), but they are by no means equal to his Litanies in beauty and finish.
-- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907)

Person Name: Unknown Author of "Jesus, Holy Child Divine" in The Hymnal for Young People 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.

Robert Grant
1779 - 1838 Person Name: R. Grant Author of "Saviour! when in dust to Thee" in The Church Hymnal Robert Grant (b. Bengal, India, 1779; d. Dalpoorie, India, 1838) was influenced in writing this text by William Kethe’s paraphrase of Psalm 104 in the Anglo-Genevan Psalter (1561). Grant’s text was first published in Edward Bickersteth’s Christian Psalmody (1833) with several unauthorized alterations. In 1835 his original six-stanza text was published in Henry Elliott’s Psalm and Hymns (The original stanza 3 was omitted in Lift Up Your Hearts).
Of Scottish ancestry, Grant was born in India, where his father was a director of the East India Company. He attended Magdalen College, Cambridge, and was called to the bar in 1807. He had a distinguished public career a Governor of Bombay and as a member of the British Parliament, where he sponsored a bill to remove civil restrictions on Jews. Grant was knighted in 1834. His hymn texts were published in the Christian Observer (1806-1815), in Elliot’s Psalms and Hymns (1835), and posthumously by his brother as Sacred Poems (1839).

========================
Grant, Sir Robert, second son of Mr. Charles Grant, sometime Member of Parliament for Inverness, and a Director of the East India Company, was born in 1785, and educated at Cambridge, where he graduated in 1806. Called to the English Bar in 1807, he became Member of Parliament for Inverness in 1826; a Privy Councillor in 1831; and Governor of Bombay, 1834. He died at Dapoorie, in Western India, July 9, 1838. As a hymnwriter of great merit he is well and favourably known. His hymns, "O worship the King"; "Saviour, when in dust to Thee"; and "When gathering clouds around I view," are widely used in all English-speaking countries. Some of those which are less known are marked by the same graceful versification and deep and tender feeling. The best of his hymns were contributed to the Christian Observer, 1806-1815, under the signature of "E—y, D. R."; and to Elliott's Psalms & Hymns, Brighton, 1835. In the Psalms & Hymns those which were taken from the Christian Observer were rewritten by the author. The year following his death his brother, Lord Glenelg, gathered 12 of his hymns and poems together, and published them as:— Sacred Poems. By the late Eight Hon. Sir Robert Grant. London, Saunders & Otley, Conduit Street, 1839. It was reprinted in 1844 and in 1868.
This volume is accompanied by a short "Notice," dated "London, Juno 18, 1839."
=====================
Grant, Sir R., p. 450, i. Other hymns are:—
1. From Olivet's sequester'd scats. Palm Sunday.
2. How deep the joy, Almighty Lord. Ps. lxxxiv.
3. Wherefore do the nations wage. Ps. ii.
These are all from his posthumous sacred Poems, 1839.

Small Church Music
Editors: Thomas Benson Pollock Description:
History
The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling
to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid
1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of
this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset
of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano
with organ versions.
About the Recordings All recordings are in MP3 format.
Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per
month.
The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse.
Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs.
