Author: Sabine Baring-Gould Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1155 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Refrain First Line: O that I had wings of angels Lyrics: 1. Daily, daily, sing the praises
Of the city God hath made;
In the beauteous fields of Eden
Its foundation stones are laid.
Refrain
O that I had wings of angels,
Here to spread and heavenward fly!
I would seek the gates of Zion,
Far beyond the starry sky.
2. All the walls of that dear city
Are of bright and burnished gold;
It is matchless in its beauty,
And its treasures are untold. [Refrain]
3. In the midst of that dear city
Christ is reigning on His seat,
And the angels swing their censers
In a ring about His feet. [Refrain]
4. From the throne a river issues,
Clear as crystal, passing bright,
And it traverses the city
Like a sudden beam of light. [Refrain]
5. There the forests ever blossom,
Like our orchards here in May;
There the gardens never wither,
But eternally are gay. [Refrain]
6. There the meadows green and dewy
Shine with lilies wondrous fair;
Thousand, thousand, are the colors
Of the waving flowers there. [Refrain]
7. There the wind is sweetly fragrant,
And is laden with the song
Of the seraphs, and the elders,
And the great redeemèd throng. [Refrain]
8. O I would my ears were open
Here to catch that happy strain!
O I would my eyes some vision
Of that Eden would attain! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: DAILY, DAILY

S. Baring-Gould
1834 - 1924 Author of "Daily, Daily Sing the Praises" in Select Sunday School Songs Baring-Gould, Sabine, M.A., eldest son of Mr. Edward Baring-Gould, of Lew Trenchard, Devon, b. at Exeter, Jan. 28, 1834, and educated at Clare College, Cambridge, B.A. 1857, M.A. 1860. Taking Holy Orders in 1864, he held the curacy of Horbury, near Wakefield, until 1867, when he was preferred to the incumbency of Dalton, Yorks. In 1871 he became rector of East Mersea, Essex, and in 1881 rector of Lew Trenchard, Devon. His works are numerous, the most important of which are, Lives of the Saints, 15 vols., 1872-77; Curious Myths of the Middle Ages, 2 series, 1866-68; The Origin and Development of Religious Belief, 2 vols., 1869-1870; and various volumes of sermons. His hymns, original and translated, appeared in the Church Times; Hymns Ancient & Modern, 1868 and 1875; The People's Hymnal, 1867, and other collections, the most popular being "Onward, Christian soldiers," "Daily, daily sing the praises," the translation "Through the night of doubt and sorrow," and the exquisite Easter hymn, "On the Resurrection Morning."
His latest effort in hymnology is the publication of original Church Songs, 1884, of which two series have been already issued. In the Sacristy for Nov. 1871, he also contributed nine carols to an article on "The Noels and Carols of French Flanders.” These have been partially transferred to Chope's and Staniforth's Carol Books, and also to his Church Songs.

Anonymous
Person Name: Anon. Author of "O, that I might hear the angels" in The Church 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.
