A Seedling of Jesse Shall Flower

Author: William V. Harcourt Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 A seedling of Jesse shall flower, A ruler descend from his line, Instinct with the spirit of power, The spirit of wisdom divine. 2 A judge to reprove for the meek, The mantle of justice to wear, To render their rights to the weak, The wrongs of the poor to repair. 3 Then none shall devour or hurt, When God has His dwelling with men; The babe with the scorpion shall sport, And play on the cockatrice’s den. 4 Then children the tiger shall lead; The wolves shall lie down with the flocks; The kid with the leopard shall feed, The lion eat straw with the ox. The word that goes forth from His mouth A light to the nations shall be, To spread from the north to the south, And flow like the tides to the sea.

Escape From The Perilous Plain

Author: John R. Macduff Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Escape from the perilous plain, The brimstone cloud hangs in the sky, And ominous symbols proclaim The season of vengeance is nigh. 2 How many once plunged in despair, Have hearkened to mercy’s loud call! And still may the guilty repair To refuge provided for all. 3 The world’s boasted shelters are vain, Its antidotes fail to relieve; Its pleasures are mingled with pain, Its promises only deceive. 4 But Jesus, Thou life of my soul, Secure in Thy bosom I hide; On Thee all my burdens I roll, I long for no refuge beside. 5 Should life’s cherished joys disappear, Its blossoms of happiness fade, These only the Shelter endear, Which trials can never invade. 6 Oh, come, blessèd Savior of love, And gladden my spirit forgiven, With hope of Thy presence above, In sorrowless mansions of Heaven! Used With Tune: BEN AVON Text Sources: Altar Stones, (London: James Nisbet, 1853)

George C. Stebbins

1846 - 1945 Composer of "BEN AVON" in The Psalter Stebbins studied music in Buffalo and Rochester, New York, then became a singing teacher. Around 1869, he moved to Chicago, Illinois, to join the Lyon and Healy Music Company. He also became the music director at the First Baptist Church in Chicago. It was in Chicago that he met the leaders in the Gospel music field, such as George Root, Philip Bliss, & Ira Sankey. At age 28, Stebbins moved to Boston, Massachusetts, where he became music director at the Claredon Street Baptist Church; the pastor there was Adoniram Gordon. Two years later, Stebbins became music director at Tremont Temple in Boston. Shortly thereafter, he became involved in evangelism campaigns with Moody and others. Around 1900, Stebbins spent a year as an evangelist in India, Egypt, Italy, Palestine, France and England. (www.hymntime.com/tch)

Anonymous

Author of "All People That Dwell on the Earth" in The Cyber Hymnal 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.

John R. MacDuff

1818 - 1895 Person Name: John R. Macduff Author of "Escape From The Perilous Plain" in The Cyber Hymnal Macduff, John Ross, D.D., second son of Alexander Macduff, of Bonhard, near Perth, was born at Bonhard, May 23, 1818. After studying at the University of Edinburgh, he became in 1842 parish minister of Kettins, Forfarshire, in 1849 of St. Madoes, Perthshire, and in 1855 of Sandyford, Glasgow. He received the degree of D.D. from the University of Glasgow in 1862, and about the same time also from the University of New York. He retired from pastoral work in 1871, lived at Chislehurst, Kent and died in 1887. He has published many practical and devotional works which have attained a wide circulation. In 1857 he was appointed by the General Assembly a member of their Hymnal Committee. His 31 hymns appeared in his Altar Stones, 1853, and were also included with his later poems in his The Gates of Praise, 1876. Of these hymns the following are in common use:— 1. Christ Is coming! Let creation. Second Advent. 2. Eternal Rock! To Thee I flee. (1853.) Christ the Rock. 3. Everlasting arms of love. (1853.) Support in Christ. 4. From Thy habitation holy. Whitsuntide. 5. Hasten, Lord, that morn of glory. Second Advent. 6. Jesus wept! Those tears are over. (1853.) The raising of Lazarus. 7. O do not, blessed Lord, depart. Christ's presence desired. 8. Where shall I look for holy calm. (1853.) Passiontide. 9. Why should I murmur or repine? Resignation. Of these hymns those dated 1853 are parts only of Dr. Macduff’s originals. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.] -- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907) ============== Macduff, J. R., p. 708, i. Another hymn from his Gates of Praise, 1876, is "Blessed feast! most gracious token" (Holy Communion).

Small Church Music

Description: History The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid 1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano with organ versions. About the Recordings All recordings are in MP3 format. Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per month. The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse. Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs.
