Do Ye, O Men, Speak Righteousness
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Do ye, O men, speak righteousness
And upright judgment mete?
Nay, in your hearts is wickedness,
And in you hands deceit.
2 The wicked, from their earliest days,
in sin are gone astray,
With froward heart, in foolish pride,
From wisdom turned away.
3 The God of vengeance will destroy
The wicked from His sight;
The Lord will bring to nought their power,
And scatter all their might.
4 The good shall triumph and rejoice,
And this shall be confessed:
On earth the God of justice reigns,
And righteousness is blessed.

John Bacchus Dykes
1823 - 1876 Person Name: John B. Dykes Composer of "BONE PASTOR" in The Psalter 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.

Anonymous
Author of "Do Ye, O Men, Speak Righteousness?" 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.
