Thou, Lord, Art Love, and Everywhere
Author: James D. Burns, 1823-1864 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #79 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Thou, Lord, art love, and everywhere
Thy name is brightly shown,
Beneath, on earth, Thy footstool fair,
Above, in heaven, Thy throne.
2 Thy ways are love; though they transcend
Our feeble range of sight,
They wind, through darkness, to their end
In everlasting light.
3 Thy thoughts are love; and Jesus is
The living voice they find;
His love lights up the vast abyss
Of the eternal mind.
4 Thy chastisements are love; more deep
They stamp the seal divine,
And by a sweet compulsion keep
Our spirits nearer Thine.
5 Thy heaven is the abode of love:
O blessed Lord, that we
May there, when time's deep shades remove,
Be gathered home to Thee.
Amen. Topics: God the Father Love and Mercy; God Love and Fatherhood Scripture: 1 John 4:16 Languages: English Tune Title: BELMONT

The Gospel shows Thy face.

When all shall love Thee, Lord, and all
Shall in Thy love be one. Languages: English Tune Title: CLAPHAM

John Bacchus Dykes
1823 - 1876 Person Name: John B. Dykes Composer of "BEATITUDO" in Hymns of the Kingdom of God As a young child John Bacchus Dykes (b. Kingston-upon-Hull' England, 1823; d. Ticehurst, Sussex, England, 1876) took violin and piano lessons. At the age of ten he became the organist of St. John's in Hull, where his grandfather was vicar. After receiving a classics degree from St. Catherine College, Cambridge, England, he was ordained in the Church of England in 1847. In 1849 he became the precentor and choir director at Durham Cathedral, where he introduced reforms in the choir by insisting on consistent attendance, increasing rehearsals, and initiating music festivals. He served the parish of St. Oswald in Durham from 1862 until the year of his death. To the chagrin of his bishop, Dykes favored the high church practices associated with the Oxford Movement (choir robes, incense, and the like). A number of his three hundred hymn tunes are still respected as durable examples of Victorian hymnody. Most of his tunes were first published in Chope's Congregational Hymn and Tune Book (1857) and in early editions of the famous British hymnal, Hymns Ancient and Modern.

William Gardiner
1770 - 1853 Composer of "BELMONT" in The New Christian Hymnal William Gardiner (b. Leicester, England, 1770; d. Leicester, 1853) The son of an English hosiery manufacturer, Gardiner took up his father's trade in addition to writing about music, composing, and editing. Having met Joseph Haydn and Ludwig van Beethoven on his business travels, Gardiner then proceeded to help popularize their compositions, especially Beethoven's, in England. He recorded his memories of various musicians in Music and Friends (3 volumes, 1838-1853). In the first two volumes of Sacred Melodies (1812, 1815), Gardiner turned melodies from composers such as Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven into hymn tunes in an attempt to rejuvenate the singing of psalms. His work became an important model for American editors like Lowell Mason (see Mason's Boston Handel and Haydn Collection, 1822), and later hymnbook editors often turned to Gardiner as a source of tunes derived from classical music.

Person Name: Unknown Composer of "CLAPHAM" 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.
