Come, all ye people, come away
Author: George Rise Seltzer, b.1902 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, all ye people, come away,
Come to our glad and festal day;
Tell of the deeds that God hath wrought
Beyond desert or power of thought.
2 In this fair land our feet are set
Where men of every clime have met;
Almighty God, with his dear hand
Hath kindly led the pilgrim band. A-men.
3 Throughout our life his truth and light
Have been our beacon in the night;
Know we in war and peace his care
Of loved ones far away and near.
4 O God, to thee we bring the meed
Of praise, for help in time of need,
For mercies given by thy Son,
For joys which make our cup o'er-run.
5 Grant us, throughout our earthly day,
To love and serve thee all the way;
To labor for thy Kingdom's spread,
For Christ our Lord, for Christ our Head!
6 Father and Son and Spirit blest,
To thee be every prayer addressed,
Who art in threefold Name adored,
From age to age, the only Lord.
Amen.

Samuel Webbe
1740 - 1816 Person Name: Samuel Webbe, 1740 - 1816 Composer of "MELCOMBE" in Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America Samuel Webbe (the elder; b. London, England, 1740; d. London, 1816) Webbe's father died soon after Samuel was born without providing financial security for the family. Thus Webbe received little education and was apprenticed to a cabinetmaker at the age of eleven. However, he was determined to study and taught himself Latin, Greek, Hebrew, French, German, and Italian while working on his apprenticeship. He also worked as a music copyist and received musical training from Carl Barbant, organist at the Bavarian Embassy. Restricted at this time in England, Roman Catholic worship was freely permitted in the foreign embassies. Because Webbe was Roman Catholic, he became organist at the Portuguese Chapel and later at the Sardinian and Spanish chapels in their respective embassies. He wrote much music for Roman Catholic services and composed hymn tunes, motets, and madrigals. Webbe is considered an outstanding composer of glees and catches, as is evident in his nine published collections of these smaller choral works. He also published A Collection of Sacred Music (c. 1790), A Collection of Masses for Small Choirs (1792), and, with his son Samuel (the younger), Antiphons in Six Books of Anthems (1818).
