THIS ENDRIS NYGHT
We sing your praise, eternal God
Author: Alan Gaunt (b. 1935) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Hymnal Title: Ancient and Modern Lyrics: 1 We sing your praise, eternal God,
to whom all praise belongs;
but we can never match your love,
however loud our songs:
2 Your love which comes so silently,
through all the noise we hear;
the noise of quarrelling and war,
the cries of grief and fear.
3 The winds of doubt uproot our faith,
the earthquakes of despair
destroy our hope, and fires of hate
kill love and stifle prayer.
4 And yet no sound on earth can drown
the silence we have heard;
the voice of your eternal love;
the silence of your Word.
5 It comes to guilty, broken hearts,
with challenge and release;
prepares us for self-sacrifice
and speaks eternal peace. Topics: Doubt; Fear; God Love of; Justice and Peace; Peace Scripture: 1 Kings 19 Used With Tune: THIS ENDRIS NYGHT
We sing your praise, eternal God
The Son of God his glory hides
Author: John Chandler (1806-1876); Jean de Santeul (1630--1697) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Hymnal Title: Ancient and Modern Lyrics: 1 The Son of God his glory hides
to dwell with parents poor;
and he who made the heavens abides
in dwelling-place obscure.
2 Those mighty hands that stay the sky
no earthly toil refuse;
and he who set the stars on high
an humble trade pursues.
3 He in whose sight the angels stand,
at whose behest they fly,
now yields himself to man's command,
and lays his glory by.
4 For this thy lowliness revealed,
Jesu, we thee adore,
and praise to God the Father yield
and Spirit evermore. Topics: Christmas; Church Year Advent; Church Year Christmas; Humility; Jesus Life and Ministry; Work Scripture: John 13:3-5 Used With Tune: THIS ENDRIS NYGHT Text Sources: Divine crescebas puer stanzas 2-5

John Chandler
1806 - 1876 Person Name: John Chandler (1806-1876) Hymnal Title: Ancient and Modern Translator (basis) of "The Son of God his glory hides" in Ancient and Modern John Chandler, one of the most successful translators of hymns, was born at Witley in Surrey, June 16, 1806. He was educated at Corpus Christi College, Oxford, B.A. 1827, M.A. 1830. Ordained deacon in 1831 and priest in 1832, he succeeded his father as the patron and vicar of Whitley, in 1837. His first volume, entitled The Hymns of the Primitive Church, now first Collected, Translated and Arranged, 1837, contained 100 hymns, for the most part ancient, with a few additions from the Paris Breviary of 1736. Four years later, he republished this volume under the title of hymns of the Church, mostly primitive, collected, translated and arranged for public use, 1841. Other publications include a Life of William of Wykeham, 1842, and Horae sacrae: prayers and meditations from the writings of the divines of the Anglican Church, 1854, as well as numerous sermons and tracts. Chandler died at Putney on July 1, 1876.

Chandler, John, M.A.,one of the earliest and most successful of modern translators of Latin hymns, son of the Rev. John F. Chandler, was born at Witley, Godalming, Surrey, June 16, 1806, and educated at Corpus Christi College, Oxford, where he graduated in 1827. He took Holy Orders in 1831, and became Vicar of Witley in 1837. He died at Putney, July 1, 1876. Besides numerous Sermons and Tracts, his prose works include Life of William of Wykeham, 1842; and Horae Sacrae; Prayers and Meditations from the writings of the Divines of the Anglican Church, with an Introduction, 1844. His translations, he says, arose out of his desire to see the ancient prayers of the Anglican Liturgy accompanied by hymns of a corresponding date of composition, and his inability to find these hymns until he says,
"My attention was a short time ago directed to some translations [by Isaac Williams] which appeared from time to time in the British Magazine, very beautifully executed, of some hymns extracted from the Parisian Breviary,with originals annexed. Some, indeed, of the Sapphic and Alcaic and other Horatian metres, seem to be of little value; but the rest, of the peculiar hymn-metre, Dimeter Iambics, appear ancient, simple, striking, and devotional—in a word in every way likely to answer our purpose. So I got a copy of the Parisian Breviary [1736], and one or two other old books of Latin Hymns, especially one compiled by Georgius Cassander, printed at Cologne, in the year 1556, and regularly applied myself to the work of selection and translation. The result is the collection I now lay before the public." Preface, Hymns of the Primitive Church, viii., ix.
This collection is:—
(1) The Hymns of the Primitive Church, now first Collected, Translated, and Arranged, by the Rev. J. Chandler. London, John W. Parker, 1837. These translations were accompanied by the Latin texts. The trsanslations rearranged, with additional translations, original hymns by Chandler and a few taken from other sources, were republished as (2) The Hymns of the Church, mostly Primitive, Collected, Translated, and Arranged/or Public Use, by the Rev. J. Chandler, M.A. London, John W. Parker, 1841.
From these works from 30 to 40 translations have come gradually into common use, some of which hold a foremost place in modern hymnals, "Alleluia, best and sweetest;" "Christ is our Corner Stone;" "On Jordan's bank the Baptist's cry;" "Jesus, our Hope, our hearts' Desire;" "Now, my soul, thy voice upraising;" "Once more the solemn season calls;" and, "O Jesu, Lord of heavenly grace;" being those which are most widely used. Although Chandler's translations are somewhat free, and, in a few instances, doctrinal difficulties are either evaded or softened down, yet their popularity is unquestionably greater than the translations of several others whose renderings are more massive in style and more literal in execution.

He was one of the regular Canons of St. Victor, at Paris, and, under the name of Santolius Victorinus, was distinguished as a writer of Latin poetry. Many of his hymns appeared in the Cluniac Breviary 1686, and the Paris Breviaries 1680 and 1736, and several have been translated into English, and are in common use in Great Britain and America. He was very jocose in disposition and singular in his habits. When on a journey he died at Dijon, Aug. 5, 1697. His Hymni Sacri et Novi were published at Paris in 1689, and again, enlarged, in 1698.
