Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me
Redemption found In Jesus, under the idea of an anchor cast in a storm
Appears in 155 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 4:10 First Line: Now have I found the ground, wherein Lyrics: 1 Now I have found the ground, wherein
My soul’s sure anchor may remain;
The wounds of Jesus for my sin,
Before the world’s foundation slain;
Whose mercy shall unshaken stay,
When heav'n and earth are fled away.
2 Father, thine everlasting grace,
Our scanty thought surpasses far;
Thy heart still melts with tenderness--
Thy arms of love still open are,
Returning sinners to receive,
That mercy they may taste and live.
3 By faith I plunge me in this sea,
Here is my hope, my joy, my rest;
'Tis here, when hell assaults I flee,
And look into my Savior’s breast;
Away sad doubts and anxious fear,
Mercy is all that’s written there.
4 Tho' waves and storms go o’er my head,
Tho' strength and health and friends be gone,
Tho' joys be wither'd all, and dead--
Tho' every comfort be withdrawn,
On thee my steadfast soul relies;
Father thy mercy never dies.
5 Fix'd on this ground will I remain,
Tho' my heart fail and flesh decay,
This anchor shall my soul sustain,
When earth’s foundation melts away,
Mercy’s full pow'r I then shall prove,
Lov'd with an everlasting love.
6 What in thy love possess I not?
My star by night, my sun by day--
My springs of life, when parch'd with drought,
My wine to cheer, my bread to stay--
My shield, my strength, my safe abode--
My palace, Savior and my God.

Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1348 (1886) Scripture: Hebrews 4:9 First Line: "Land ahead!" its fruits are waving Lyrics: 1 "Land ahead!" its fruits are waving
O'er the hills of fadeless green,
And the living waters laving
Shores where heav'nly forms are seen.
Chorus:
Rocks and storms I'll fear no more,
When on that eternal shore;
Drop the anchor! furl the sail!
I am safe within the vail!
2 Onward bark! the cape I'm rounding;
See the blessed wave their hands;
Hear the harps of God resounding
From the bright immortal bands. [Chorus]
3 Now we're safe from all temptaiton,
All the storms of life are past;
Praise the Rock of our salvation,
We are safe at home at last. [Chorus]

Richard Redhead
1820 - 1901 Person Name: Richard Redhead, 1820-1901 Scripture: Hebrews 4:12-16 Composer of "REDHEAD NO. 76 (PETRA)" in Common Praise (1998) Richard Redhead (b. Harrow, Middlesex, England, 1820; d. Hellingley, Sussex, England, 1901) was a chorister at Magdalen College, Oxford. At age nineteen he was invited to become organist at Margaret Chapel (later All Saints Church), London. Greatly influencing the musical tradition of the church, he remained in that position for twenty-five years as organist and an excellent trainer of the boys' choirs. Redhead and the church's rector, Frederick Oakeley, were strongly committed to the Oxford Movement, which favored the introduction of Roman elements into Anglican worship. Together they produced the first Anglican plainsong psalter, Laudes Diurnae (1843). Redhead spent the latter part of his career as organist at St. Mary Magdalene Church in Paddington (1864-1894).

=================================
Russell, Arthur Tozer , M.A. He was the son of the Rev. Thomas Clout, who later changed his surname for Russell (Gentlemen’s Magazine, 1848), an Independent or Congregational minister who won for himself a good reputation by editing the works of Tyndale, Frith, Barnes, and Dr. John Owen, &c. He was born at Northampton, March 20, 1806; educated at St. Saviour's School, Southwark, and at the Merchant Taylors' School, London. In 1822-24 he was at Manchester College, York. In 1825 he entered St. John's College, Cambridge, as a sizar, and in his freshman year gained the Hulsean Prize, its subject being, "In what respects the Law is a Schoolmaster to bring men to Christ." In 1829 he was ordained by the Bishop of Lincoln (Kaye), and licensed to the Curacy of Great Gransden, Hunts, and in 1830 was preferred to the Vicarage of Caxton, which he held till 1852. During his ministry here he published the following works: The Claims of the Church of England upon the Affections of the People (1832); Sermons for Fasts and Festivals; A Critique upon Keble's Sermon on Tradition, in opposition. About 1840 appeared his Apology of the Church of England and an Epistle to Seignor Sapio concerning the Council of Trent, translated from the original Latin of Bishop Jewell. About the same time appeared Hymn Tunes, Original and Selected from Ravenscroft and other old Musicians, In 1841 was published A Manual of Daily Prayer. In 1844 Memorials of the Works and Life of Dr. Thomas Fuller….
His first appearance as a hymnwriter was in the 3rd edition of the hymn-book published by his father (1st ed. 1813), and known amongst Congregationalists as Russet's Appendix. In 1847 followed The Christian Life. In 1851 Psalms and Hymns, partly original, partly selected, for the use of the Church of England. … In 1867 he removed to Wrockwardine Wood, Shropshire, where he remained until 1874, when he was presented to the Rectory of Southwick, near Brighton. Here he died after a long and distressing illness, on the 18th of November, 1874. In his earlier years he was an extreme High Churchman, but by the study of St. Augustine his views were changed and he became, and continued to the end, a moderate Calvinist. His original hymns are gracious and tender, thoughtful and devout. His translations on the whole are vigorous and strong, but somewhat ultra-faithful to the original metres, &c. He left behind him a History of the Bishops of England and Wales in manuscript sufficient to form three or four goodly octavos, and numerous MS. Notes on the Text of the Greek Testament; and also a large number of original chants and hymntunes in manuscripts. [Rev. A. B. Grossart, DD. LLD.]
