Did our Immanuel die for us

Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Did our Immanuel die for us, To save such poor rebellious Men? Did he display his Pity thus, That we might come to GOD again? 2 All human Language wants a Name, For this unfathom'd wond'rous Love: This pure Immortal fervent Flame, Sprang only from the GOD above. 3 What can we add? Our Speech is faint; We sink beneath the pond'rous Load: This Love no eloquence can paint; 'Tis grand! 'tis worthy of a GOD? 4 O'erwhelmed with this Abys of Love, We stand astonish'd at the Grace, That brought the Saviour from above, To die for all the fallen Race! 5 Did our IMMANUEL die for us? What more can be by sounds exprest? For Sinners CHRIST was made a Curse; Eternity must tell the rest. Topics: Praise to the Redeemer

Daniel Read

1757 - 1836 Composer of "WINDHAM" in The Brethren Hymnal Daniel Read; b. 1757, Rehoboth, Mass.; d. 1837, New Haven, Conn.An American composer and a primary figure in early American classical music. He was one of the “Yankee Tunesmiths” (1st New England School of Music) when classical music was popular in Europe. Read was a private in Massachusetts militia and later a comb maker and owner of a general store in New Haven, CN. He was only the 3rd composer in the U. S. to put out a collection of his own music. His work, “The American Singing Book” went through 5 editions, making him the most popular composer in the nation. Others often plagarized his tunes in those days. Tunebook sales supplemented his general store income, including “The Columbian Harmonist” (3 volumnes) with 3 revisions, and “The New Haven Collection of Sacred Music” 1818. Read also published “The American Musical magazine” in 12 annual issues in 1786 and 1787. In later years he came to appreciate European music more and imitated that styling in devotional music. Some of Read's music is still being performed, and selections have been published in “The Sacred Harp”, 1991 Edition, and the “Stoughton Music Society” (Centennial Collection 1980). John Perry
