To our dear Sabbath-school there ought many to come
Hymnal: The New Sabbath School Hosanna #66a (1870) Lyrics: 1 To our dear Sabbath-school there ought many to come,
Who spend Sunday wandering or trifling at home;
I'll try to bring one, or I'll try to bring two;
Yes, all that I can I'm determined to do.
God meant all the people who live in this place,
To hear of his goodness, and join in his praise;
So I'll try to bring one, or I'll try to bring two:
Yes, all that I can I'm determined to do.
2 Let me think: are there none of the dear ones at home,
The large, or the little, who never have come?
Oh, I'll beg and I'll coax, try for one, try for two:
Yes, all that I can I'm determined to do.
My cousins and playmates, who live in this street,
I'll ask them to come, the next time that we meet;
Who knows but among them I'll get one or two?
For all that I can I'm determined to do.
2 Out there in the lot that I pass every day,
How many spend Sunday in frolic or play!
If I could but get one of these boys, now, or two,
To come here next Sabbath, would good it might do?
Perhaps up to heaven some day I may go:
What glory and blessedness then I shall know;
But I want in that glory that many may share,
That one, two, yes, all I can take, may be there. Tune Title: RECRUITING HYMN

William B. Bradbury
1816 - 1868 Person Name: Wm. B. Bradbury Composer of "[To our dear Sunday school there ought to come]" in Sunny-Side Songs for Sunday Schools William Batchelder Bradbury USA 1816-1868. Born at York, ME, he was raised on his father's farm, with rainy days spent in a shoe-shop, the custom in those days. He loved music and spent spare hours practicing any music he could find. In 1830 the family moved to Boston, where he first saw and heard an organ and piano, and other instruments. He became an organist at 15. He attended Dr. Lowell Mason's singing classes, and later sang in the Bowdoin Street church choir. Dr. Mason became a good friend. He made $100/yr playing the organ, and was still in Dr. Mason's choir. Dr. Mason gave him a chance to teach singing in Machias, ME, which he accepted. He returned to Boston the following year to marry Adra Esther Fessenden in 1838, then relocated to Saint John, New Brunswick. Where his efforts were not much appreciated, so he returned to Boston. He was offered charge of music and organ at the First Baptist Church of Brooklyn. That led to similar work at the Baptist Tabernacle, New York City, where he also started a singing class. That started singing schools in various parts of the city, and eventually resulted in music festivals, held at the Broadway Tabernacle, a prominent city event. He conducted a 1000 children choir there, which resulted in music being taught as regular study in public schools of the city. He began writing music and publishing it. In 1847 he went with his wife to Europe to study with some of the music masters in London and also Germany. He attended Mendelssohn funeral while there. He went to Switzerland before returning to the states, and upon returning, commenced teaching, conducting conventions, composing, and editing music books. In 1851, with his brother, Edward, he began manufacturring Bradbury pianos, which became popular. Also, he had a small office in one of his warehouses in New York and often went there to spend time in private devotions. As a professor, he edited 59 books of sacred and secular music, much of which he wrote. He attended the Presbyterian church in Bloomfield, NJ, for many years later in life. He contracted tuberculosis the last two years of his life.
