In God's Most Holy Presence

Author: Ernest Dodgshun, 1876-? Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2978 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1. In God’s most holy presence we meet with one accord, To grasp the hand of friendship and learn of Christ, our Lord. We leave the week behind us, with all its toil and strain, With grateful hearts to welcome the Sabbath once again. 2. Our worship will be fruitless and all our prayers in vain, If, holding this day sacred, we make the week profane. In every daily duty, high purpose we must show, And as we hope for Heaven, make earth a heav’n below. 3. If we but love Thee truly, our love is not confined To Thee, but grows expansive, embracing all mankind. Help us in mutual service for all, abroad, at home, To share the conquering travail that makes Thy kingdom come. Languages: English Tune Title: EWING

John Bacchus Dykes

1823 - 1876 Person Name: J. B. Dykes Composer of "JESU MAGISTER BONE" in The Fellowship Hymn Book As a young child John Bacchus Dykes (b. Kingston-upon-Hull' England, 1823; d. Ticehurst, Sussex, England, 1876) took violin and piano lessons. At the age of ten he became the organist of St. John's in Hull, where his grandfather was vicar. After receiving a classics degree from St. Catherine College, Cambridge, England, he was ordained in the Church of England in 1847. In 1849 he became the precentor and choir director at Durham Cathedral, where he introduced reforms in the choir by insisting on consistent attendance, increasing rehearsals, and initiating music festivals. He served the parish of St. Oswald in Durham from 1862 until the year of his death. To the chagrin of his bishop, Dykes favored the high church practices associated with the Oxford Movement (choir robes, incense, and the like). A number of his three hundred hymn tunes are still respected as durable examples of Victorian hymnody. Most of his tunes were first published in Chope's Congregational Hymn and Tune Book (1857) and in early editions of the famous British hymnal, Hymns Ancient and Modern. Bert Polman
