Thomas Benson Pollock

1836 - 1896 Hymnal Title: Calvin Hymnary Project Author of "Heavenly Father, from Thy throne" 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) =================== Pollock, T.

Robert Brown-Borthwick

1840 - 1894 Person Name: R. Brown-Borthwick Hymnal Title: Sunday-School Book Composer of "MISERERE DOMINE" in Sunday-School Book Brown-Borthwick, Robert, born at Aberdeen, May 18, 1840, and educated at St. Mary Hall, Oxford. Taking Holy Orders in 1865, he has been Curate of Sudeley (and Chaplain of the Winchcombs Union), Gloucestershire, 1865-6, and Evesham, 1866-8; Assistant Minister of Quebec Chapel, London, 1868-9; and Incumbent of Holy Trinity, Grange, near Keswick, 1869. He is now (1886) Vicar of All Saints, Scarborough. His publications, in addition to his prose works, are:— Supplemental Hymn and Tune Book, 1867 (4th edition, 1871); Sixteen Hymns for Church and Home, 1870; Select Hymns for Church and Home, 1871; and various Kyries, Hymn Tunes, Chants, &c. In addition he has rendered good service as one of the four Editors of the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge Church Hymns. In this last work three of his best hymns are found: “Come, O Jesu, to Thy Table"; "O Holy Jesu, Prince of Peace”; "Let us raise our grateful voices." Canon Westcott in his Paragraph Psalter acknowledges Mr. Brown-Borthwick's assistance in preparing that work for the press as of great value thereto. He died March 17, 1894. Of Mr. Brown-Borthwick's hymns the following appeared in his Sixteen Hymns, &c, 1870:— 1. Come, O Jesus, to Thy Table. Holy Communion. 2. Lord, in the watches of the night. Midnight. 3. O Holy Jesu, Prince of Peace. Holy Communion. The author's note to this hymn is, "This is not a congregational hymn, but a meditation, to be read while non-communicants are retiring, or to be sung by the choir alone, anthem-wise, kneeling." These hymns were repeated in his Select Hymns, &c, 1871-85. The following is also in that collection:— 4. Let us raise our grateful [gladsome] voices . Flower Services, or Thanksgiving. "Written in Borrowdale, on a summer morning in 1870," and published in the S. P. C. K. Church Hymns, 1871, &c. -- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907)
