God Has Spoken by His Prophets

Author: George W. Briggs Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 53 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God has spoken by His prophets, Spoken His unchanging Word, Each from age to age proclaiming God, the one, the righteous Lord. In the world's despair and turmoil One firm anchor holds us fast: God is King, His throne eternal, God the First and God the Last. 2 God has spoken by Christ Jesus, Christ the everlasting Son, Brightness of the Father's glory, With the Father ever one; Spoken by the Word incarnate, God of God, ere time was born; Light of Light, to earth descending, Christ as God in human form. 3 God is speaking by His Spirit, Speaking to our hearts again; In the ageless Word expounding God's own message, now as then. Thro' the rise and fall of nations One sure faith yet standing fast: God abides, His Word unchanging, God the First and God the Last.

Thomas John Williams

1869 - 1944 Person Name: Thomas J. Williams Composer of "EBENEZER" in The United Methodist Hymnal Although his primary vocation was in the insurance business, Thomas John Williams (b. Ynysmeudwy, Glamorganshire, Wales, 1869; d. Llanelly, Carmarthenshire, Wales, 1944) studied with David Evans at Cardiff and later was organist and choirmaster at Zion Chapel (1903­-1913) and Calfaria Chapel (1913-1931), both in Llanelly. He composed a number of hymn tunes and a few anthems. Bert Polman

Ludwig van Beethoven

1770 - 1827 Person Name: Ludwig von Beethoven Composer of "ODE TO JOY" in The Worshiping Church A giant in the history of music, Ludwig van Beethoven (b. Bonn, Germany, 1770; d. Vienna, Austria, 1827) progressed from early musical promise to worldwide, lasting fame. By the age of fourteen he was an accomplished viola and organ player, but he became famous primarily because of his compositions, including nine symphonies, eleven overtures, thirty piano sonatas, sixteen string quartets, the Mass in C, and the Missa Solemnis. He wrote no music for congregational use, but various arrangers adapted some of his musical themes as hymn tunes; the most famous of these is ODE TO JOY from the Ninth Symphony. Although it would appear that the great calamity of Beethoven's life was his loss of hearing, which turned to total deafness during the last decade of his life, he composed his greatest works during this period. Bert Polman
