Dum nokte gardis al ŝafar'

Author: Nahum Tate; Leonard Ivor Gentle Hymnal: TTT-Himnaro Cigneta #110 Lyrics: 1. Dum nokte gardis al ŝafar' Ŝafistoj, laŭ la mor', Alstaris apud paŝtistar' Anĝelo meze glor'. 2. Ĉar teruriĝis tiu ar', Ne timu ! diris li, Sciigon bonan por homar' Venigas mi al vi. 3. Hodiaŭ jen en Bet-Leĥem, El David famili', Naskita estas Kristo mem, Savanto nun por vi. 4. La sanktan bebon trovos vi, Jen signo — en humil' En stala trogo kuŝas ĝi, La vera Dia Fil'. 5. Subite estis kun l' anĝel' Armeo en aer' Laŭdante Dion en ĉiel', Dirante super ter': 6. Al Dio en ĉielo, glor', Kaj paco sur la ter', De nun al homoj Di-favor' — Saviĝo kaj esper'. Topics: Christmas Languages: Esperanto Tune Title: WINCHESTER OLD

Hugh Wilson

1766 - 1824 Composer of "MARTYRDOM" in TTT-Himnaro Cigneta Hugh Wilson (b. Fenwick, Ayrshire, Scotland, c. 1766; d. Duntocher, Scotland, 1824) learned the shoemaker trade from his father. He also studied music and mathematics and became proficient enough in various subjects to become a part-­time teacher to the villagers. Around 1800, he moved to Pollokshaws to work in the cotton mills and later moved to Duntocher, where he became a draftsman in the local mill. He also made sundials and composed hymn tunes as a hobby. Wilson was a member of the Secession Church, which had separated from the Church of Scotland. He served as a manager and precentor in the church in Duntocher and helped found its first Sunday school. It is thought that he composed and adapted a number of psalm tunes, but only two have survived because he gave instructions shortly before his death that all his music manuscripts were to be destroyed.

Nahum Tate

1652 - 1715 Author of "Dum nokte gardis al ŝafar'" in TTT-Himnaro Cigneta Nahum Tate was born in Dublin and graduated from Trinity College, Dublin, B.A. 1672. He lacked great talent but wrote much for the stage, adapting other men's work, really successful only in a version of King Lear. Although he collaborated with Dryden on several occasions, he was never fully in step with the intellectual life of his times, and spent most of his life in a futile pursuit of popular favor. Nonetheless, he was appointed poet laureate in 1692 and royal historiographer in 1702. He is now known only for the New Version of the Psalms of David, 1696, which he produced in collaboration with Nicholas Brady. Poverty stricken throughout much of his life, he died in the Mint at Southwark, where he had taken refuge from his creditors, on August 12, 1715. --The Hymnal 1940 Companion See also in: Hymn Writers of the Church

George Frideric Handel

1685 - 1759 Person Name: George Frederick Handel Composer of "CHRISTMAS" in TTT-Himnaro Cigneta 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
