Going on before me;
Step by step the light I follow;
Praise the Lord.

Trusting Him who gently leads me
All along. [Refrain]

O’er the lonely river,

Tidings from over the Jordan
Author: Mrs. A. E. Andrews Hymnal: JL1884 #32 (1884) Person Name: Mrs. A. E. Andrews Refrain First Line: Marching, marching Lyrics: 1 Tidings from over the Jordan,
News from our Saviour in glory,
Borne in a wonderful story,
Telling of rapture and love;
Tidings from over the Jordan;
Hear the glad message declaring
Hope to the lone and despairing,
Joy to the poor and oppressed.
Refrain:
Marching, marching,
Steadily on, rejoicing;
Marching, marching,
cheerily on we go;
Tidings of joy invite us,
Echoes of song delight us;
Marching, marching,
Cheerily onward we go.
2 Tidings from over the Jordan;
All, if they will, may receive them;
Happy are they who believe them,
Looking to Jesus for rest;
Tidings from over the Jordan;
Voices are tenderly calling,
Come where no shadows are falling,
Come to the land of the blest. [Refrain]
3 Tidings from over the Jordan;
There is the city of gladness,
End of all weeping and sadness,
Bright with Immanuel’s love;
There are the fold and the Shepherd,
There is the beautiful river.
There may we dwell and forever,
Safe in the pastures above. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Tidings from over the Jordan]

Mary M. Adams
1840 - 1902 Person Name: Mrs. Mary M. Barnes Hymnal Number: 35 Author of "Here and There" in Joyful Lays Mary Jane Matthews, married C. M. Smith; married A. S. Barnes, 1883; married Charles Kendall Adams, 1890.
She has written verses in the leisure of her happy life. First her hymns sang themselves from her heart and then her poems caroled their way from her soul. Few of her classmates in Packer Institute, where she was for the most part educated, knew that the popular Mary Mathews was not American born and a Brooklyn girl. Her birthplace was Ireland and her ancestry Irish. She is the author of thirty or more known hymns, many of them incorporated in song books of a score of more songs and ballads, several of which have been set to music, and are familiar favorites, and of many lyrics and sonnets.

Sarah Flower Adams
1805 - 1848 Person Name: Mrs. Sarah F. Adams Hymnal Number: 199 Author of "Nearer, my God, to Thee" in Joyful Lays Adams, Sarah, nee Flower. born at Harlow, Essex, Feb. 22nd, 1805; died in London, Aug. 14, 1848, and was buried at Harlow, Aug. 21,1848. She was the younger daughter of Mr. Benjamin Flower, editor and proprietor, of The Cambridge Intelligencer; and was married, in 1834, to William B. Adams, a civil engineer. In 1841 she published Vivia Perpetua, a dramatic poem dealing with the conflict of heathenism and Christianity, in which Vivia Perpetua suffered martyrdom; and in 1845, The Flock at the Fountain; a catechism and hymns for children. As a member of the congregation of the Rev. W. J. Fox, an Unitarian minister in London, she contributed 13 hymns to the Hymns and Anthems, published by C. Fox, Lond., in 1841, for use in his chapel. Of these hymns the most widely known are— "Nearer,my God,to Thee," and "He sendeth sun, He sendeth shower." The remaining eleven, most of which have come into common use, more especially in America, are:—
Creator Spirit! Thou the first. Holy Spirit.
Darkness shrouded Calvary. Good Friday.
Gently fall the dews of eve. Evening.
Go, and watch the Autumn leaves. Autumn.
O hallowed memories of the past. Memories.
O human heart! thou hast a song. Praise.
O I would sing a song of praise. Praise.
O Love! thou makest all things even. Love.
Part in Peace! is day before us? Close of Service.
Sing to the Lord! for His mercies are sure. Praise.
The mourners came at break of day. Easter.
Mrs. Adams also contributed to Novello's musical edition of Songs for the Months, n. d. Nearly all of the above hymns are found in the Unitarian collections of Great Britain, and America. In Martineau's Hymns of Praise & Prayer, 1873, No. 389, there is a rendering by her from Fenelon: —" Living or dying, Lord, I would be Thine." It appeared in the Hymns and Anthems, 1841.
