author or composer
Hello,
I'm trying to track down the author or composer for "We need thy Son, O dearest mother," for which your website has been helpful in citing the publication as "The Ordinary of the Mass and a Complete Manual of Hymns for Parochial Schools #d440" and the publisher as Public Press, Philadelphia, Penn., 1935. Our congregation used to sing this song back in the 1950s and 1960s and we'd like to record it in a video but want to ensure we are complying with copyright laws. I understand you cannot grant licensing permission but I am hoping you might know the author or composer or some additional information.
Thank you.
