Again we meet, O Lord

Appears in 25 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Again we meet, O Lord, Again we fill this place, To hear thy holy word, And ask thy promised grace; To thank thee for the gifts we share, The children of thy love and care. 2 Grant us the list'ning ear The understanding heart, The mind and will sincere, To choose the better part-- To take the learner's lowly seat, And gather wisdom at thy feet. 3 Thro' this, and every day, Teach us thy paths to tread, Nor let our feet astray By Satan's wiles be led; Be keep us in the narrow road-- The way to glory and to God.

George Frideric Handel

1685 - 1759 Person Name: Handel Arranger of "HANDEL" in The New Sabbath School Hosanna George Frideric Handel (b. Halle, Germany, 1685; d. London, England, 1759) became a musician and composer despite objections from his father, who wanted him to become a lawyer. Handel studied music with Zachau, organist at the Halle Cathedral, and became an accomplished violinist and keyboard performer. He traveled and studied in Italy for some time and then settled permanently in England in 1713. Although he wrote a large number of instrumental works, he is known mainly for his Italian operas, oratorios (including Messiah, 1741), various anthems for church and royal festivities, and organ concertos, which he interpolated into his oratorio performances. He composed only three hymn tunes, one of which (GOPSAL) still appears in some modern hymnals. A number of hymnal editors, including Lowell Mason, took themes from some of Handel's oratorios and turned them into hymn tunes; ANTIOCH is one example, long associated with “Joy to the World.” Bert Polman
