O Thou Not Made with Hands
Author: F.T. Palgrave Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #403 (1985) Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 O thou not made with hands,
not throned above the skies,
nor walled with shining walls,
nor framed with stones of price,
more bright than gold or gem,
God's own Jerusalem!
2 Where'er the gentle heart
finds courage from above;
where'er the heart forsook
warms with the breath of love,
where faith bids fear depart,
City of God, thou art.
3 Thou art where'er the proud
in humbleness melts down,
where self itself yields up,
where martyrs win their crown,
where faithful souls possess
themselves in perfect peace.
4 Where in life's common ways
with cheerful feet we go,
when in his steps we tread
who trod the way of woe,
where he is in the heart,
City of God, thou art.
5 Not throned above the skies,
nor golden-walled afar,
but where Christ's two or three
in his name gathered are,
be in the midst of them,
God's own Jerusalem!

Joseph Barnby
1838 - 1896 Composer of "LAUDES DOMINI" in The Hymnal 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).

London, 1889) is best known for his music editing of Hymns Ancient and Modern (1861, 1868; 1875, and 1889 editions). He also adapted music from plainsong and added accompaniments for Introits for Use Throughout the Year, a book issued with that famous hymnal. Beginning in his teenage years, Monk held a number of musical positions. He became choirmaster at King's College in London in 1847 and was organist and choirmaster at St. Matthias, Stoke Newington, from 1852 to 1889, where he was influenced by the Oxford Movement. At St. Matthias, Monk also began daily choral services with the choir leading the congregation in music chosen according to the church year, including psalms chanted to plainsong. He composed over fifty hymn tunes and edited The Scottish Hymnal (1872 edition) and Wordsworth's Hymns for the Holy Year (1862) as well as the periodical Parish Choir (1840-1851).
