Here Within This House of Prayer
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #535 (2010) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Here within this house of prayer
all our Father's love declare;
love that gave us birth and planned
days and years beneath His hand:
praise to God whose love and power
bring us to this present hour!
2 Here, till earthly praises end,
tell of Christ the sinner's friend;
Christ whose blood for us was shed,
Lamb of God and living bread,
life divine and truth and way,
light of everlasting day.
3 Here may all our faint desire
feel the Spirit's wind and fire
souls that sleep the sleep of death
stir to life beneath His breath:
may His power upon us poured
send us out to serve the Lord!
4 Here may faith and love increase,
flowing forth in joy and peace
from the Father, Spirit, Son,
undivided, Three in One:
His the glory all our days
in this house of prayer and praise!

William Henry Monk
1823 - 1889 Person Name: W. H. Monk (1823-1889) Arranger of "DIX" in Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) William H. Monk (b. Brompton, London, England, 1823; d. London, 1889) is best known for his music editing of Hymns Ancient and Modern (1861, 1868; 1875, and 1889 editions). He also adapted music from plainsong and added accompaniments for Introits for Use Throughout the Year, a book issued with that famous hymnal. Beginning in his teenage years, Monk held a number of musical positions. He became choirmaster at King's College in London in 1847 and was organist and choirmaster at St. Matthias, Stoke Newington, from 1852 to 1889, where he was influenced by the Oxford Movement. At St. Matthias, Monk also began daily choral services with the choir leading the congregation in music chosen according to the church year, including psalms chanted to plainsong. He composed over fifty hymn tunes and edited The Scottish Hymnal (1872 edition) and Wordsworth's Hymns for the Holy Year (1862) as well as the periodical Parish Choir (1840-1851).

Conrad Kocher
1786 - 1872 Person Name: C. Kocher (1786-1872) Composer of "DIX" in Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) Trained as a teacher, Conrad Kocher (b. Ditzingen, Wurttemberg, Germany, 1786; d. Stuttgart, Germany, 1872) moved to St. Petersburg, Russia, to work as a tutor at the age of seventeen. But his love for the music of Haydn and Mozart impelled him to a career in music. He moved back to Germany in 1811, settled in Stuttgart, and remained there for most of his life. The prestigious Cotta music firm published some of his early compositions and sent him to study music in Italy, where he came under the influence of Palestrina's music. In 1821 Kocher founded the School for Sacred Song in Stuttgart, which popularized four-part singing in the churches of that region. He was organist and choir director at the Stiftskirche in Stuttgart from 1827 to 1865. Kocher wrote a treatise on church music, Die Tonkunst in der Kirche (1823), collected a large number of chorales in Zions Harfe (1855), and composed an oratorio, two operas, and some sonatas. William H. Monk created the current form of DIX by revising and shortening Conrad Kocher's chorale melody for “Treuer Heiland, wir sind hier,” found in Kocher's Stimmen aus dem Reiche Gottes (1838).
