Come And Rejoice With Me!
Author: Elizabeth R. Charles Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come and rejoice with me!
For once my heart was poor,
And I have found a treasury
Of love, a boundless store.
2 Come and rejoice with me!
I who was sick at heart,
Have met with One who knows my cause,
And knows the healing art.
3 Come and rejoice with me!
For I was wearied sore,
And I have found a mighty arm
Which holds me evermore.
4 Come and rejoice with me!
My feet so wide did roam,
And One has sought me from afar,
And beareth me safe home.
5 Come and rejoice with me!
For I have found a friend
Who knows my heart’s most secret depths,
Yet loves me without end.
6 I knew not of His love,
And He had loved so long,
With love so faithful and so deep,
So tender and so strong.
7 And now I know it all,
Have heard and know His voice,
And hear it still from day to day—
Can I enough rejoice? Used With Tune: DOVER Text Sources: The Three Wakings, and Other Poems, 1859

Joseph Barnby
1838 - 1896 Composer of "MONSELL" in Christian Chorals Joseph Barnby (b. York, England, 1838; d. London, England, 1896) An accomplished and popular choral director in England, Barnby showed his musical genius early: he was an organist and choirmaster at the age of twelve. He became organist at St. Andrews, Wells Street, London, where he developed an outstanding choral program (at times nicknamed "the Sunday Opera"). Barnby introduced annual performances of J. S. Bach's St. John Passion in St. Anne's, Soho, and directed the first performance in an English church of the St. Matthew Passion. He was also active in regional music festivals, conducted the Royal Choral Society, and composed and edited music (mainly for Novello and Company). In 1892 he was knighted by Queen Victoria. His compositions include many anthems and service music for the Anglican liturgy, as well as 246 hymn tunes (published posthumously in 1897). He edited four hymnals, including The Hymnary (1872) and The Congregational Sunday School Hymnal (1891), and coedited The Cathedral Psalter (1873).
