Out Of The Shadow

Author: Jennie Harrison Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10182 Meter: 10.7.10.7.10.7 D First Line: Out of the shadow of death and the grave Refrain First Line: Victory! victory! let it resound Lyrics: 1 Out of the shadow of death and the grave, Jesus our Savior hath come, Bright in His glory and mighty to save, Free from the taint of the tomb! Robes of humanity, sanctified so, Worn in His pitying love, Drop, with their weight of earth weakness and woe— Jesus ascendeth above. Refrain: Victory! victory! let it resound, Death can no longer enthrall; Jesus is risen! repeat the glad sound, Life and salvation for all. 2 Out of the shadow of winter’s long night, Earth comes in gladness today! Clad in the garments of springtime and light, Scattering doubt and dismay. Beautiful story that never grows old, Pledge from our conquering Lord, Earth is redeemed from its darkness and cold; Easter hath come at His word. [Refrain] 3 Out of the shadow of weakness and fear, Let us arise, then, today! Jesus hath called us, our Easter is here! Why should we doubt and delay? Here is the path that our conqueror trod, Bright with His blessings of peace; These are His blossoms that spring from the sod, Telling of hope and release. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: SACHSEN

William F. Sherwin

1826 - 1888 Person Name: William Fiske Sherwin Composer of "SACHSEN" in The Cyber Hymnal Sherwin, William Fisk, an American Baptist, was born at Buckland, Massachusetts, March 14,1826. His educational opportunities, so far as schools were concerned, were few, but he made excellent use of his time and surroundings. At fifteen he went to Boston and studied music under Dr. Mason: In due course he became a teacher of vocal music, and held several important appointments in Massachusetts; in Hudson and Albany, New York County, and then in New York City. Taking special interest in Sunday Schools, he composed carols and hymn-tunes largely for their use, and was associated with the Rev. R. Lowry and others in preparing Bright Jewels, and other popular Sunday School hymn and tune books. A few of his melodies are known in Great Britain through I. D. Sankey's Sacred Songs and Solos, where they are given with his signature. His hymnwriting was limited. The following pieces are in common use:— 1. Grander than ocean's story (1871). The Love of God. 2. Hark, bark, the merry Christmas bells. Christmas Carol. 3. Lo, the day of God is breaking. The Spiritual Warfare. 4. Wake the song of joy and gladness. Sunday School or Temperance Anniversary. 5. Why is thy faith, 0 Child of God, so small. Safety in Jesus. Mr. Sherwin died at Boston, Massachusetts, April 14, 1888. -- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907) ================== Sherwin, W. F., p. 1055, i. Another hymn from his Bright Jewels, 1869, p. 68, is "Sound the battle cry" (Christian Courage), in the Sunday School Hymnary, 1905, and several other collections. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, New Supplement (1907)
