All Things Bless Thee

Author: James A. Mitchell Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: All things bless Thee, God most holy Lyrics: 1 All things bless Thee, God most holy, To Thy feet their worship bring; Thou art worthy of all praises, Ever blessèd glorious King. Earth, and air, and ocean’s fullness, All Thy power and love declare; And in this exultant chorus, May not little children share? 2 Childhood’s treasures are Thy giving, Sunny days and laughing hours, Daisied meadows in the springtime, Roses in the summer bowers— Food and raiment, home and shelter, Sleep for wearied eye and limb, Dawning day, and happy waking To the birds’ sweet morning hymn. 3 And when old and young had wandered Into faults and follies wild, Surely Thou didst think of children, Sending forth Thy Son a child. Lord, forgive our many errors, And restore us when we fall, Thy loved Child is our Redeemer— By His mercy save us all. 4 Help us now to be as He was, Pure and gentle, good and kind, Give us of His peaceful spirit, And His "meek and lowly" mind. Teach our hearts to feel Thy mercy, Turn our eyes to look to Thee; May we trust in Thee our Father, And Thy loving children be. 5 And when youth’s brief morn is over, Still be Thou our constant guide; Through the hot day’s dusty travel, Set of sun, and eventide. And when death’s dark night has fallen, Lead us through the "awful door"; Satisfy us with Thy presence, Be our joy forevermore. Used With Tune: IONA Text Sources: The School Hymnal by W. R. Stevenson (London: E. Marlborough & Company, 1880)

John Bacchus Dykes

1823 - 1876 Person Name: John B. Dykes Composer of "ST. SYLVESTER" in Heart and Voice As a young child John Bacchus Dykes (b. Kingston-upon-Hull' England, 1823; d. Ticehurst, Sussex, England, 1876) took violin and piano lessons. At the age of ten he became the organist of St. John's in Hull, where his grandfather was vicar. After receiving a classics degree from St. Catherine College, Cambridge, England, he was ordained in the Church of England in 1847. In 1849 he became the precentor and choir director at Durham Cathedral, where he introduced reforms in the choir by insisting on consistent attendance, increasing rehearsals, and initiating music festivals. He served the parish of St. Oswald in Durham from 1862 until the year of his death. To the chagrin of his bishop, Dykes favored the high church practices associated with the Oxford Movement (choir robes, incense, and the like). A number of his three hundred hymn tunes are still respected as durable examples of Victorian hymnody. Most of his tunes were first published in Chope's Congregational Hymn and Tune Book (1857) and in early editions of the famous British hymnal, Hymns Ancient and Modern. Bert Polman
