"Christian, seek not yet repose"

Author: Charlotte Elliott Meter: 7.7.7.3 Appears in 204 hymnals Lyrics: "Christian, seek not yet repose," Hear thy guardian angel say; "Thou art in the midst of foes: Watch and pray!" Principalities and powers, Mustering their unseen array, Wait for thy unguarded hours: Watch and pray! Gird thy heavenly armour on, Wear it ever, night and day; Ambushed lies the evil one: Watch and pray! Hear the victors who o'ercame; Still they mark each warrior's way; All with one sweet voice exclaim: "Watch and pray!" Hear, above all, hear thy Lord, Him thou lovest to obey; Hide within thy heart his word: "Watch and pray!" Watch, as if on that alone Hung the issue of the day; Pray that help may be sent down: Watch and pray! Topics: Ash Wednesday and Lent Used With Tune: VIGILATE

Let Us Go To Galilee

Author: P. C. Paulsen Meter: 7.7.7.3 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let us go to Galilee, To the land across the sea, Where the hills have heard the Word Of our Lord. 2 Echoes ring from hill to hill, Voices sound across the rill: He is coming through the lea, Blest is He. 3 There He is, the Prophet true, Coming slowly into view, With the bearing of a king, Joy to bring. 4 Hearts aglow with joyful song, Children join the happy throng; Multitudes with one accord Hail Him Lord. 5 Seated on the grassy slope, Heaven opens, words of hope Lift the souls to God on high, Christ is nigh. 6 How I long to see the Lord, Hear Him speak His holy Word, In the land across the sea, Galilee. Topics: Savior Used With Tune: GALDAN

Heavy laden with thy grief

Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns from the East #21 (1907) Meter: 7.7.7.3 Lyrics: I Heavy laden with thy grief, Do thy tears like raindrops flow? Christ hath all thy sorrows borne Long ago. II See Him in the garden, prone, While He poured His soul to God; Then He bore affliction keen, And the rod. III Weary, laden with thy sin, Dost thou bow beneath the load? Cast the burden of thy woe, On thy God. IV See Him faint beneath the load, As He bears the ghastly tree; Hear His weary spirit sigh, All for thee. V Sad and doubting, lo! the sun Shines upon a glorious day: He is risen! come, see the place Where He lay. VI Glory to our suffering Lord, Praise to our exalted King,— Source of life and endless bliss,— Let us bring. Languages: English

Like the beams that from the sun

Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns from the Morningland #27 (1911) Meter: 7.7.7.3 Lyrics: I Like the beams that from the sun, Pierce the blackness of the night, Come to us, O Promised One, Spirit, Light. II Pure as saints who have attained, Clad in brightness for attire, Cleanse our souls by vileness stained, Spirit, Fire. III Stronger than uplifted arm In the tumult of the fight, Save our timid souls from harm, Spirit, Might. IV Soothing as the calm that falls When the winds and billows cease, Comfort us when fear appals, Spirit, Peace. V Come, O Gracious Spirit, come, We would have Thee for our Guest, Make our souls Thy chosen home, Spirit, Blest. Languages: English

Heavy laden with thy grief

Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns of the Russian Church #31 (1920) Meter: 7.7.7.3 Lyrics: Heavy laden with thy grief, Do thy tears like raindrops flow? Christ hath all thy sorrows borne, Long ago. See Him in the garden prone, While He pours His soul to God; Then He bore affliction keen, And the rod. Weary, laden with thy sin, Dost thou bow beneath the load? Cast the burden of thy woe, On thy God. See Him fainting by the way, As He bears the ponderous tree; Hear His weary spirit sigh, All for thee. Sad and doubting! lo, the sun Shines upon a glorious day; He is risen, come see the place Where He lay. Glory to our suffering Lord, Praise to our exalted King,-- Source of life and endless bliss,-- Let us bring. Languages: English

William Henry Monk

1823 - 1889 Person Name: William H. Monk Meter: 7.7.7.3 Composer of "VIGILATE" in The Hymnal William H. Monk (b. Brompton, London, England, 1823; d. London, 1889) is best known for his music editing of Hymns Ancient and Modern (1861, 1868; 1875, and 1889 editions). He also adapted music from plainsong and added accompaniments for Introits for Use Throughout the Year, a book issued with that famous hymnal. Beginning in his teenage years, Monk held a number of musical positions. He became choirmaster at King's College in London in 1847 and was organist and choirmaster at St. Matthias, Stoke Newington, from 1852 to 1889, where he was influenced by the Oxford Movement. At St. Matthias, Monk also began daily choral services with the choir leading the congregation in music chosen according to the church year, including psalms chanted to plainsong. He composed over fifty hymn tunes and edited The Scottish Hymnal (1872 edition) and Wordsworth's Hymns for the Holy Year (1862) as well as the periodical Parish Choir (1840-1851). Bert Polman

Joseph Barnby

1838 - 1896 Meter: 7.7.7.3 Composer of "MONTEITH" Joseph Barnby (b. York, England, 1838; d. London, England, 1896) An accomplished and popular choral director in England, Barby showed his musical genius early: he was an organist and choirmaster at the age of twelve. He became organist at St. Andrews, Wells Street, London, where he developed an outstanding choral program (at times nicknamed "the Sunday Opera"). Barnby introduced annual performances of J. S. Bach's St. John Passion in St. Anne's, Soho, and directed the first performance in an English church of the St. Matthew Passion. He was also active in regional music festivals, conducted the Royal Choral Society, and composed and edited music (mainly for Novello and Company). In 1892 he was knighted by Queen Victoria. His compositions include many anthems and service music for the Anglican liturgy, as well as 246 hymn tunes (published posthumously in 1897). He edited four hymnals, including The Hymnary (1872) and The Congregational Sunday School Hymnal (1891), and coedited The Cathedral Psalter (1873). Bert Polman

Nils Frykman

1842 - 1911 Person Name: Nils Frykman, 1842-1911 Meter: 7.7.7.3 Author of "God, My God, in Heaven Above" in The Covenant Hymnal Born: October 20, 1842, Sunne, Värmland, Sweden (birth name: Nils Larsson). Died: March 30, 1911, Minneapolis, Minnesota. Buried: Lakewood Cemetery, Minneapolis, Minnesota. Nils took the name Frykman after the region where he grew up, Fryksdalen. In 1868, he graduated from teachers’ college in Karlstad, and went on to teach in Grums, Norrköping, and Sunne. He preached in the church in Sunne, and around that time began to write hymns. Eventually, his texts were printed in the magazine Sanningsvittnet. However, Frykman’s work was not sanctioned by Sweden’s state church, and almost led to the loss of his job as a teacher. Eventually he did resign his position over a controversy about his children’s baptism by an independent preacher. In 1888, he was called to serve as pastor in the Tabernacle Church in Chicago, Illinois, and later in Salem, Minnesota. After 18 years, he retired to Minneapolis. He also served in the Northwest Mission Association of the Covenant Church, as denominational vice-chairman, Ministerial Board chairman, the Northwest Ministerial Association chairman, and as chairman of the committee to publish the Swedish-American Covenant church’s first hymnal in 1906. His works include: The History of My Songs --www.hymntime.com/tch
