O God, Who to a Loyal Home
Author: Harry Emerson Fosdick Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #385 (1957) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O God, who to a loyal home
Didst trust Thy Son divine,
Where faithful love and patient work
Made daily life benign;
With contrite shame Thy grace we claim
And lift to Thee our prayer;
Redeem our oft unworthy homes
Till all is Christ-like there.
2 Deliver us from sins which harm
Our homes, and mar their peace.
May selfless and devoted love
Make strife and discord cease.
With anxious zeal, for mankind’s weal
And worldwide peace we pray,
But all in vain, if wayward homes
Cause childhoods steps to stray.
3 Thou art our Father, and from Thee
All faithful families spring;
To homes where love and honor dwell
Thou dost Thy blessing bring.
O God of love, send from above
Thy succor, swift and strong,
That from such homes stout souls may come
To triumph over wrong.
4 We pray that childhood’s latent pow'rs
May grow to bless mankind;
That we may guide aright young lives,
For unguessed good designed.
O Father God, whose Son has trod
Such lowly paths as we,
Help us to build on earth true homes,
Till we come home to Thee.
Amen. Scripture: Luke 2:51-52 Tune Title: AMESBURY

Ralph Vaughan Williams
1872 - 1958 Person Name: R. Vaughan Williams, 1872-1958 Arr. and harm. of "KINGSFOLD" in Hymnbook for Christian Worship Through his composing, conducting, collecting, editing, and teaching, Ralph Vaughan Williams (b. Down Ampney, Gloucestershire, England, October 12, 1872; d. Westminster, London, England, August 26, 1958) became the chief figure in the realm of English music and church music in the first half of the twentieth century. His education included instruction at the Royal College of Music in London and Trinity College, Cambridge, as well as additional studies in Berlin and Paris. During World War I he served in the army medical corps in France. Vaughan Williams taught music at the Royal College of Music (1920-1940), conducted the Bach Choir in London (1920-1927), and directed the Leith Hill Music Festival in Dorking (1905-1953). A major influence in his life was the English folk song. A knowledgeable collector of folk songs, he was also a member of the Folksong Society and a supporter of the English Folk Dance Society. Vaughan Williams wrote various articles and books, including National Music (1935), and composed numerous arrangements of folk songs; many of his compositions show the impact of folk rhythms and melodic modes. His original compositions cover nearly all musical genres, from orchestral symphonies and concertos to choral works, from songs to operas, and from chamber music to music for films. Vaughan Williams's church music includes anthems; choral-orchestral works, such as Magnificat (1932), Dona Nobis Pacem (1936), and Hodie (1953); and hymn tune settings for organ. But most important to the history of hymnody, he was music editor of the most influential British hymnal at the beginning of the twentieth century, The English Hymnal (1906), and coeditor (with Martin Shaw) of Songs of Praise (1925, 1931) and the Oxford Book of Carols (1928).

U. C. Burnap
1834 - 1900 Composer of "AMESBURY" in The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church Burnap ran a dry goods business in Brooklyn, though he graduated from the University of Paris with a music degree, and for 37 years played the organ at the Reformed Church in Brooklyn Heights. He was a prolific composer, and helped edit the following:
Hymns of the Church, 1869
Hymns of Prayer and Praise, 1871
Hymns and Songs of Praise, 1874
--The Cyber Hymnal™
There is uncertainty about his middle name. Reynolds and the Library of Congress say it was Christopher. A contemporary obituary relied on by "The Cyber Hymnal™" says it was Cicero. It appears that there was another Uzziah C[icero] Burnap who lived (per LOC) 1794-1854.
