Thou, Lord, Art Love

Author: Rev. J. D. Burns Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 31 hymnals Hymnal Title: The New Christian Hymnal First Line: Thou, Lord, art Love, and everywhere Lyrics: 1 Thou, Lord, art Love: and ev'rywhere Thy Name is brightly shown, Beneath, on earth, Thy footstool fair, Above, in heav'n, Thy throne. 2 Thy Word is love; in lines of gold There mercy prints its trace; In nature we Thy steps behold, The gospel shows Thy face. 3 Thy ways are love; though they transcend Our feeble range of sight, They wind, through darkness, to their end In everlasting light. 4 Thy thoughts are love; and Jesus is The living voice they find: His love lights up the vast abyss Of the eternal Mind. 5 Thy chastisements are love; more deep They stamp the seal divine, And by a sweet compulsion keep Our spirits nearer Thine. 6 Thy heav'n is the abode of Love: O blessed Lord, that we May there, when time's deep shades remove, Be gathered home to Thee.

John Bacchus Dykes

1823 - 1876 Person Name: John B. Dykes Hymnal Title: Hymns of the Kingdom of God 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. Bert Polman

George J. Elvey

1816 - 1893 Person Name: George Job Elvey Hymnal Title: Hymns of the Living Church Composer of "ELVEY" in Hymns of the Living Church George Job Elvey (b. Canterbury, England, 1816; d. Windlesham, Surrey, England, 1893) As a young boy, Elvey was a chorister in Canterbury Cathedral. Living and studying with his brother Stephen, he was educated at Oxford and at the Royal Academy of Music. At age nineteen Elvey became organist and master of the boys' choir at St. George Chapel, Windsor, where he remained until his retirement in 1882. He was frequently called upon to provide music for royal ceremonies such as Princess Louise's wedding in 1871 (after which he was knighted). Elvey also composed hymn tunes, anthems, oratorios, and service music. Bert Polman
