Father of All, To Thee
Author: John D. Julian Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1460 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Father of all, to Thee
With loving hearts we pray,
Through Him, in mercy given,
The Life, the Truth, the Way;
From Heav’n, Thy throne, in mercy shed
Thy blessings on each bended head.
2. Father of all, to Thee
Our contrite hearts we raise,
Unstrung by sin and pain,
Long voiceless in Thy praise;
Breathe Thou the silent chords along,
Until they tremble into song.

We breathe unuttered fears,
Deep hidden in our souls,
That have no voice but tears;
Take Thou our hand, and through the wild
Lead gently each trustful child.

In praise our tongues employ,
When gladness fills the soul
With deep and hallowed joy;
In storm and calm give us to see
The path of peace which leads to Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: VIA PACIS

John Julian
1839 - 1913 Author of "Father of all, to Thee" in The Hymnal of Praise Born: January 27, 1839, St. Agnes, Cornwall.
Died: January 22, 1913, Thirsk, Yorkshire, England.
Educated privately, Julian graduated from Durham University (MA 1887), Lambeth (DD 1894), and Howard University in Washington, DC (LLD 1894). He took Holy Orders in 1866, and served as Vicar of Wincobank (1876-1905) and Vicar of Topcliff, Yorkshire (1905-). However, he is best known as a hymnologist. The standard reference work in this field is his massive Dictionary of Hymnology: Origin and History of Christian Hymns and Hymnwriters of All Ages and Nations, Together with Biographical and Critical Notices of Their Authors and Translators. This work has been revised and reprinted several times; its publication dates include:
-- London: J. Murray, 1892
-- London: J. Murray, 1908 (this may be the edition revised by James Mearns (1855-1922), Vicar of Rushden, Hertfordshire)
--Grand Rapids, Michigan: Kregel Publications, 1985
His other works include:
Concerning Hymns, 1874
History of the Use of Hymns in Public Worship, and Their Proper Characteristics, 1894
Carols, Ancient and Modern, 1900
Julian donated his large collection of hymnological books and manuscripts to the Church House, Dean’s Yard, London, where it formed the hymnological department of the library.

Arthur Sullivan
1842 - 1900 Person Name: A. S. Sullivan Composer of "SAMUEL" in The Hymnal of Praise Arthur Seymour Sullivan (b Lambeth, London. England. 1842; d. Westminster, London, 1900) was born of an Italian mother and an Irish father who was an army bandmaster and a professor of music. Sullivan entered the Chapel Royal as a chorister in 1854. He was elected as the first Mendelssohn scholar in 1856, when he began his studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London. He also studied at the Leipzig Conservatory (1858-1861) and in 1866 was appointed professor of composition at the Royal Academy of Music. Early in his career Sullivan composed oratorios and music for some Shakespeare plays. However, he is best known for writing the music for lyrics by William S. Gilbert, which produced popular operettas such as H.M.S. Pinafore (1878), The Pirates of Penzance (1879), The Mikado (1884), and Yeomen of the Guard (1888). These operettas satirized the court and everyday life in Victorian times. Although he composed some anthems, in the area of church music Sullivan is best remembered for his hymn tunes, written between 1867 and 1874 and published in The Hymnary (1872) and Church Hymns (1874), both of which he edited. He contributed hymns to A Hymnal Chiefly from The Book of Praise (1867) and to the Presbyterian collection Psalms and Hymns for Divine Worship (1867). A complete collection of his hymns and arrangements was published posthumously as Hymn Tunes by Arthur Sullivan (1902). Sullivan steadfastly refused to grant permission to those who wished to make hymn tunes from the popular melodies in his operettas.

1800 - 1880 Person Name: J. Goss, 1800-80 Composer of "BEVAN" in The Methodist Hymn-Book with Tunes John Goss (b. Fareham, Hampshire, England, 1800; d. London, England, 1880). As a boy Goss was a chorister at the Chapel Royal and later sang in the opera chorus of the Covent Garden Theater. He was a professor of music at the Royal Academy of Music (1827-1874) and organist of St. Paul Cathedral, London (1838-1872); in both positions he exerted significant influence on the reform of British cathedral music. Goss published Parochial Psalmody (1826) and Chants, Ancient and Modern (1841); he edited William Mercer's Church Psalter and Hymn Book (1854). With James Turle he published a two-volume collection of anthems and Anglican service music (1854).
