O Thou whose feet have climbed life’s hill And trod the path of youth, Our Savior and our brother still, Now lead us into truth. 2.

Who learn of Thee the truth shall find, Who follow, gain the goal; With reverence crown the earnest mind, And speak within the soul. 4. Awake the purpose high which strives, And, falling, stands again; Confirm the will of eager lives To quit themselves like men. 5. Thy life the bond of fellowship, Thy love the law that rules, Thy name, proclaimed by every lip, The master of our schools. Used With Tune: ST. MAGNUS

William Henry Monk

1823 - 1889 Person Name: Will­iam H. Monk Harmonizer of "ST. MAGNUS" in The Cyber Hymnal William H. Monk (b. Brompton, London, England, 1823; d. 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). Bert Polman

Person Name: Composer Unknown Composer of "HOLY CROSS" in The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Jeremiah Clarke

1669 - 1707 Person Name: Jeremiah Clarke, 1669 - 1707 Composer of "NOTTINGHAM (ST. MAGNUS)" in Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America
