In Thy Great Name, O Lord, We Come

Author: Hoskins Hymnal: The Helper in Sacred Song #127 (1889) Lyrics: 1 In Thy great Name, O Lord, we come, To worship at Thy feet; Oh, pour Thy holy Spirit down On all that now shall meet. We come to hear Jehovah speak, To hear the Saviour’s voice; Thy face and favor, Lord, we seek, Now make our hearts rejoice. 2 Teach us to pray, and praise, and hear, And understand Thy Word; To feel Thy blissful presence near, And trust our living Lord. Here let Thy pow’r and grace be felt, Thy love and mercy known; Our icy hearts, dear Jesus, melt, And break this flinty stone. 3 Let sinners, Lord, thy goodness prove, And saints rejoice in thee; Let rebels be subdued by love, And to the Saviour flee. This house with grace and glory fill; This congregation bless; Thy great salvation now reveal Thy glorious righteousness. Tune Title: [In Thy great name, O Lord, we come]

Hugh Wilson

1766 - 1824 Composer of "MARTYRDOM" in The Cyber Hymnal Hugh Wilson (b. Fenwick, Ayrshire, Scotland, c. 1766; d. Duntocher, Scotland, 1824) learned the shoemaker trade from his father. He also studied music and mathematics and became proficient enough in various subjects to become a part-­time teacher to the villagers. Around 1800, he moved to Pollokshaws to work in the cotton mills and later moved to Duntocher, where he became a draftsman in the local mill. He also made sundials and composed hymn tunes as a hobby. Wilson was a member of the Secession Church, which had separated from the Church of Scotland. He served as a manager and precentor in the church in Duntocher and helped found its first Sunday school. It is thought that he composed and adapted a number of psalm tunes, but only two have survived because he gave instructions shortly before his death that all his music manuscripts were to be destroyed.
