From thy holy habitation
From Thy Habitation Holy
Author: John R. Macduff Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1 From Thy habitation holy,
Spirit of all truth, descend,
While we sinners, poor and lowly,
At the throne of mercy bend;
Help our weakness—
And a gracious answer send!
2 Come Thou, as the dew of Hermon
Softly falls on Zion’s hill
Let us in Thy strength determine
Henceforth to obey Thy will—
Dwell within us—
Let Thy grace our bosoms fill.
3 Brooding o’er us as on chaos
Cause our darkness to retreat;
Shine into our hearts, and lay us
Humbled at the mercy-seat—
Guide us—use us
As Thy sovereign love sees meet.
4 When the heart is crushed and broken,
When bereavement dims the eye,
Let us claim the promise spoken
By those lips that cannot lie—
Blessèd Savior,
Send Thy Spirit from on high.
5 When we tread the waves of Jordan,
O be near us, sacred Guest!
Seal to us our hope of pardon;
Dove-like o’er each billow’s crest
Do Thou hover—
Guiding to eternal rest! Used With Tune: RAPHAEL (Hopkins) Text Sources: Altar Stones, (London: James Nisbet, 1853)

Person Name: Anon. Hymnal Title: Hymnal and Liturgies of the Moravian Church Composer of "SLEEPERS, WAKE (HERRNHUT)" in Hymnal and Liturgies of the Moravian Church 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.

John R. MacDuff
1818 - 1895 Person Name: John R. Macduff Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Author of "From Thy Habitation Holy" in The Cyber Hymnal Macduff, John Ross, D.D., second son of Alexander Macduff, of Bonhard, near Perth, was born at Bonhard, May 23, 1818. After studying at the University of Edinburgh, he became in 1842 parish minister of Kettins, Forfarshire, in 1849 of St. Madoes, Perthshire, and in 1855 of Sandyford, Glasgow. He received the degree of D.D. from the University of Glasgow in 1862, and about the same time also from the University of New York. He retired from pastoral work in 1871, lived at Chislehurst, Kent and died in 1887. He has published many practical and devotional works which have attained a wide circulation. In 1857 he was appointed by the General Assembly a member of their Hymnal Committee. His 31 hymns appeared in his Altar Stones, 1853, and were also included with his later poems in his The Gates of Praise, 1876. Of these hymns the following are in common use:—
1. Christ Is coming! Let creation. Second Advent.
2. Eternal Rock! To Thee I flee. (1853.) Christ the Rock.
3. Everlasting arms of love. (1853.) Support in Christ.
4. From Thy habitation holy. Whitsuntide.
5. Hasten, Lord, that morn of glory. Second Advent.
6. Jesus wept! Those tears are over. (1853.) The raising of Lazarus.
7. O do not, blessed Lord, depart. Christ's presence desired.
8. Where shall I look for holy calm. (1853.) Passiontide.
9. Why should I murmur or repine? Resignation.
Of these hymns those dated 1853 are parts only of Dr. Macduff’s originals.
