Sweet Spices They Brought

Author: Anonymous Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 22 hymnals Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: Sweet spices they brought on their star-lighted way Lyrics: 1 Sweet spices they brought on their star-lighted way, And came to the grave by the dawning of day. "But who will the stone from the sepulcher roll?" They said, as the tears from their weeping eyes stole. 2 The stone is removed, and the Savior is gone; Oh, hail, ye disciples, this bright Sabbath morn. Lift, lift your glad voices in triumph on high; Your Master has risen, and ye shall not die. 3 May Christ now appear as to Mary He came, And fill every bosom with piety’s flame. Then Heaven’s bright glories we soon shall obtain, Nor Sabbaths, so peaceful, be useless and vain. Used With Tune: ST. DENIO Text Sources: The Sabbath School Harp, 2nd ed., by Lowell Mason (Boston: Massachusetts Sabbath School Society, 1837)

Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Author of "Sweet Spices They Brought" in The Cyber Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Hymnal Title: The Wesleyan Minstrel Composer of "KEDRON" in The Wesleyan Minstrel Dr Stephen Grosvenor Hubbard MD USA 1816-1904. He compiled songbooks, some with William McDonald, President of Emmaus Bible College, also a teacher of the Plymouth Brethren.

Song books created included: “Hymns and tunes designed for social devotion” (1842), “Songs of Canaan”, “Musical gems”, Temperance melodies”, “The new temperance melodist”and “The Wesleyan sacred harp” (1856). “A collection of choice tunes and hymns for prayer class, and camp meetings, choirs, and congregational singing”. McDonald, himself, published over 84 books, including “Believers Bible Commentary”. John Perry
