Here, Master, in This Quiet Place
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Worship (4th ed.) #974 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Here, Master, in this quiet place,
Where anyone may kneel,
I also come to ask for grace,
believing you can heal.
2 If pain of body, stress of mind,
Destroys my inward peace,
In prayer for others may I find
The secret of release.
3 If self upon its sickness feeds
And turns my life to gall,
Let me not brood upon my needs,
But simply tell you all.
4 You never said, "You ask too much,"
To any troubled soul.
I long to feel your healing touch–
Will you not make me whole?
5 But if the thing I most desire
Is not your way for me,
May faith, when tested in the fire,
Prove its integrity.
6 Of all my prayers, may this be chief:
Till faith is fully grown,
Lord, disbelieve my unbelief,
And claim me as your own. Topics: Pastoral Care of the Sick; Ordinary Time, Twentieth Sunday A Languages: English Tune Title: LAND OF REST

Fred Pratt Green
1903 - 2000 Person Name: Fred Pratt Green, 1903- Author of "Here, Master, in This Quiet Place" in The Covenant Hymnal The name of the Rev. F. Pratt Green is one of the best-known of the contemporary school of hymnwriters in the British Isles. His name and writings appear in practically every new hymnal and "hymn supplement" wherever English is spoken and sung. And now they are appearing in American hymnals, poetry magazines, and anthologies.
Mr. Green was born in Liverpool, England, in 1903. Ordained in the British Methodist ministry, he has been pastor and district superintendent in Brighton and York, and now served in Norwich. There he continued to write new hymns "that fill the gap between the hymns of the first part of this century and the 'far-out' compositions that have crowded into some churches in the last decade or more."

John Bacchus Dykes
1823 - 1876 Person Name: John B. Dykes, 1823-1876 Composer of "BEATITUDO" in The Covenant Hymnal 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.
