Star of Ocean Fairest
Author: Thomas I. Ball, 1838-1916 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9093 Meter: 6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Star of ocean fairest,
Mother, God who barest,
Virgin thou immortal,
Heaven’s blissful portal.
2 Ave thou receivest,
Gabriel’s word believest;
Change to peace and gladness
Eva’s name of sadness.
3 Loose the bonds of terror,
Lighten blinded error;
All our ills repressing,
Pray for every blessing.
4 Mother’s care displaying,
Offer Him thy praying,
Who when born our brother,
Chose thee for His mother.
5 Virgin, all excelling,
Gentle past our telling;
Pardoned sinners render
Gentle, chaste and tender.
6 In pure paths direct us;
On our way protect us;
Till, on Jesus gazing,
We shall join thy praising.
7 Father, Son eternal,
Holy Ghost supernal,
With one praise we bless Thee,
Three in One confess Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: AVE MARIS STELLA

Hail, O Star That Pointest
Author: Anonymous; J. Athelstan Riley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2558 Meter: 6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1. Hail, O star that pointest
Towards the port of Heaven,
Thou to whom as maiden
God for Son was given.
2. When the salutation
Gabriel had spoken,
Peace was shed upon us,
Eva’s bonds were broken.
3. Bound by Satan’s fetters,
Health and vision needing,
God will aid and light us
At thy gentle pleading.
4. Jesu’s tender mother,
Make thy supplication
Unto Him who chose thee
At His incarnation;
5. That, O matchless maiden,
Passing meek and lowly,
Thy dear Son may make us
Blameless, chaste and holy.
6. So, as now we journey
Aid our weak endeavor,
Till we gaze on Jesus,
And rejoice forever.
7. Father, Son and Spirit,
Three in One confessing,
Give we equal glory,
Equal praise and blessing. Languages: English Tune Title: AVE MARIS STELLA

Athelstan Riley
1858 - 1945 Person Name: Athelstan Riley, 1858-1945 Author of "Ave, maris Stella" in The New English Hymnal Riley, John Athelstan Laurie, M.A., s. of John Riley, Mytholmroyd, Yorks, was born in London, Aug. 10, 1858, and educated at Eton and at Pembroke College, Oxford (B.A. 1881, M.A. 1883). He has been since 1892 a member of the House of Laymen of the Province of Canterbury. He was one of the compilers of The English Hymnal, 1906, and contributed to it seven translations from the Latin (34, 185, 193, 195, 213, 242, 321, with No. 97 previously published), and one from the Greek, beginning, "What sweet of life endureth," from Iiola rod fiiov, p. 899, i., and the following originals:—
1. Come, let us join the Church above. Martyrs.
2. Saints of God! Lo, Jesu’s people. St. Bartholomew. The initials of the lines form the acrostic Saint Bartholomew; it is really a general hymn for Apostles.
3. Ye watchers and ye holy ones. Universal Praise to God. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.]

H. W. Baker
1821 - 1877 Person Name: Sir H. W. Baker Author of "Lord, Thy word abideth" in The Lutheran Hymnary Baker, Sir Henry Williams, Bart., eldest son of Admiral Sir Henry Loraine Baker, born in London, May 27, 1821, and educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he graduated, B.A. 1844, M.A. 1847. Taking Holy Orders in 1844, he became, in 1851, Vicar of Monkland, Herefordshire. This benefice he held to his death, on Monday, Feb. 12, 1877. He succeeded to the Baronetcy in 1851. Sir Henry's name is intimately associated with hymnody. One of his earliest compositions was the very beautiful hymn, "Oh! what if we are Christ's," which he contributed to Murray's Hymnal for the Use of the English Church, 1852. His hymns, including metrical litanies and translations, number in the revised edition of Hymns Ancient & Modern, 33 in all. These were contributed at various times to Murray's Hymnal, Hymns Ancient & Modern and the London Mission Hymn Book, 1876-7. The last contains his three latest hymns. These are not included in Hymns Ancient & Modern. Of his hymns four only are in the highest strains of jubilation, another four are bright and cheerful, and the remainder are very tender, but exceedingly plaintive, sometimes even to sadness. Even those which at first seem bright and cheerful have an undertone of plaintiveness, and leave a dreamy sadness upon the spirit of the singer. Poetical figures, far-fetched illustrations, and difficult compound words, he entirely eschewed. In his simplicity of language, smoothness of rhythm, and earnestness of utterance, he reminds one forcibly of the saintly Lyte. In common with Lyte also, if a subject presented itself to his mind with striking contrasts of lights and shadows, he almost invariably sought shelter in the shadows. The last audible words which lingered on his dying lips were the third stanza of his exquisite rendering of the 23rd Psalm, "The King of Love, my Shepherd is:"—
Perverse and foolish, oft I strayed,
But yet in love He sought me,
And on His Shoulder gently laid,
And home, rejoicing, brought me."
This tender sadness, brightened by a soft calm peace, was an epitome of his poetical life.
Sir Henry's labours as the Editor of Hymns Ancient & Modern were very arduous. The trial copy was distributed amongst a few friends in 1859; first ed. published 1861, and the Appendix, in 1868; the trial copy of the revised ed. was issued in 1874, and the publication followed in 1875. In addition he edited Hymns for the London Mission, 1874, and Hymns for Mission Services, n.d., c. 1876-7. He also published Daily Prayers for those who work hard; a Daily Text Book, &c. In Hymns Ancient & Modern there are also four tunes (33, 211, 254, 472) the melodies of which are by Sir Henry, and the harmonies by Dr. Monk. He died Feb. 12, 1877.

Description:
The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling
to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid
1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of
this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset
of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano
with organ versions. All recordings are in MP3 format.
Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per
month.
The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse.
Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo
and pitch to suit their local needs.
