Thirty -Three `°Yctrs' Merit ac+nn FAVORITE al"I' t'MNS "All Nail the Power of :pus Name'" About the Middle of the Eighteenth Century in England, there was' a lit, - tie magazine widely circulated among evangelical Christians named "The GsPel ,Magazine." Many hymns which have since become ,universally known were first°' seen in this little publication and they generallya ap- peared without the author's name. This magazine for November 1779 contained the first_ verse of the hymn, "A11 Mail the 'Power Jesus Name." There was nothing to indi- cate who the author of the hymn was. In /April of the following year the whole hymn of eight verses was printed, but still without any refer- -ence to the author.. Subsequently this hymn appeared in several hym naffs' which were published during the twenty years following its publica- tion, but always without the author's naive. It was nearly sixty years af- ter that the discovery was made that the author was Rev. Edward Perron et, minister of a small non -conform- ist congregation at Canterbury. Edward Perronet was the son of Rev. Vincent Perronet, Vicar of Shoreham in Kent. He was intended for the ministry of the Anglican Chlurch but ,.he came under the in- fluence of John and Charles Wesley and became a Methodist preacher. It was at a time when Wesley and his preachers had to face much abuse and persecution and, young Perronet came in for a full share of it. Later he seems to have disagreed with the Wesleys and eventuallybecame pas- tor of a small congregation in Can- terbury, where he remained until his death in 1795. In his book on "Fa- miliar Hymns," Dr. E. F. Benson re- fers to Perronet as a pian impatient of authority and whose hymn was the' one achievement of his life. In the notebooks of Charles Wesley there are several references to Ed- ward Perronet and they invariably refer to his courage in face of per- secution. • John Wesley was anxious to hear Perronet preach, but Perronet was unwilling to preach -in •the. presence Of the founder of Methodism. On one occasion when Wesley was preaching he saw Perronet in the congregation, andwithout consulting him, announc- ed that the hymn -writer would preach the following morning. The next morning Perronet appeared in the pulpit with a Bible. He explain- ed that he had not consented to preach but nevertheless he would give them the best sermon that had ever been delivered. Then he read the entire. sermon on the Mount, without comment. All indications are that Perronet and the Wesleys retained throughout life on the best of terms. The hymn is based on Matthew 26:9, and for some considerable time was used almost exclusively as an Easter hymn. When it first made its appearance in "The Gospel Maga- zine" it was under, the title "On the Resurrection. The Lord is King." St is essentially a hymn of triumph and both the tunes "Miles Lane" and "Coronation" have added to its popularity. Perronet published three volumes of religious poetry and a number' of hymns, some of which de- serve to be more widely known, but his claim to remembrance rests upon his achievement in writing "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name." All hail the power of Jesus' name! Let angels prostrate fall; Bring forth the royal diadem To crown Hini Lord of all, Crown Him, ye martyrs of your God, Who from His altar call; Extol the Stem -of -Jesse's Rod, And crown Him Lord of all. Ye seed of Israel's chosen race, Ye ransomed, from the fall, Hail Hint Who saves you by His Grace And crown Him Lord of all. Sinners, whose love can ne'er forget The wormwood and the gall, Go, spread your trophies at His feet, And crown Him Lord of all. Let every tribe and every tongue, Responsive to the pall, Lift high the universal song, And crown Hitt Lord of all. O that, with yonder sacred throng, We at His feet may fall, Join in the everlasting song, And crown Hint Lord, of all! Amen.
