Father, Spirit, Son; Mysterious Godhead, Three in One, Before Thy Throne we sinners bend Grace, pardon, life to us extend, Staffordshire, one of the Midland counties of England, noted for its pot- teries, its iron works which have made a `'Black. Country". of :a portion of it, and its magnificent agricultural stret- ches, won a famous reputation for it- self in the realm •of hymnology. Some of our finest hymns for instance, "The Church's one. foundation," "Weary of earth and laden with my sin,'' "Hark, hark my soul, angelic songs," "My God, how wonderful thou art," "Sweet Saviour bless us ere we go," "Father of heaven whose love profound," and many .another we owe to writers once living and working in this county. Early in the last century it had its own hymnbooks, several of them, pub- lished at Uttoxter, Newcastle or Lich- field. The Rev. Thomas Cotterill of Cannock, (Staff:) was the best known of these compilers, and is noted as being one of the very few "hymn - menders" •who really improved the hymns he altered to make them suit- able for church services, as in "Lor He conies with clouds descending," "Great God what do I see and hear," to a certain extent in the three line version of "Rock of Ages," and in. Charles Wesley's: "Hail the day that sees Him rise!" Another of these Staffordshire com- pilers was the Rev. Jonathan Stubbs, of Lttoxeter whopublished a book entitled: "A Selection of Psalms and Hymns etc," It a vas in this selection that our hymn, "Father of heaven," litst appeared. Its author was the Rev. Edward Cooper M.A., an Oxford graduate and noted scholar. For four years he was Rector of Hamstall- Ridware, and from 1809 to 1833 Rec- tor of Yoxall, both in the same county of Staffordshire. He was born in 1770 and died, in 1853. In that same selection another of Mr. Cooper's hymns once popular now seldom heard, appeared; "This is the day the Lord hath blest." Of all the numerous hymns he wrote, only these two have survived to our day, chiefly because of the thousands that, have been written in the intervening cent- ury. In 1811 Mr. Cooper published at Lichfield, his cathedral city "A Sel- ection of Psalms and Hymns for the use of his own parish. No great orig- inality was exercised in naming the hymnals of..over a hundred years ago it will be noticed Five out of six of these books, bore practically the same title. Our hymn was included in that book also. The 1811 "Selection contained only forty-six psalms and hymns, but it ran through at least two editions, and was used in several of the adjoining parishes, until another '',Selection of Psalms and Hymns" appeared in 1353 edited by the Rev, C. Kemble which had a very wide circulation until it in turn was superseded in 1873 by "The New Church Hymn Book" compiled by the same author. These books both contained our hymn which was frequently sung to a not very appro- priate tune called "Cannons" compos- ed by the renowned Handel, F Mr. Kemble's book carried our hymn into general use and from his time onward nearly every hymnal in the language contained it. There were not many hymns dealing directly with the Holy Trinity, and this one had a. special appeal to English people, be- cause it carried on and amplified the familiar opening .suffrages `of the Lit- any in the Church of England Book of Common Prayer. Mr. Cooper's opening phrase "Fa- ther of Heaven" proved to be a stumbling block to many of the com- pilers, who have printed it as "Father of•all whose love from heaven," "S'a- thenof all whose wondrous love," 1 "Father of all whose wondrous grace" etc., quite unaware of the real mean- ing of the author's line, taken straight from the opening words of the Litany referred to, The "or there is a pos- sessive,, the translation of the old Lat- in de aleinde coelis, that is .of or belonging to, residing in; or enthroned in heaven, in accordance with the Lord's prayer "Our Father which art in .heaven" (the "which" being an old English common gender, not neutral as in later: use, arid therefore correctly used of the Lord and Fathcx not only of mankind but of everything created.) There is, also as an authority the fine Old Testament: prayer; "Hear Thou from heaven Thy dwelling 'place, arid when Thou hearest forgive." It is not to the Father,of heaven we sing, but to "Father, of heaven, heaven being to put it colloquially the address of His home where is His throne, As Mr. Cooper left it the hymn had four verses as printed above, the dox- ology forming a fifth verse having been added by the compilers of "Hymns Ancient and Modern." Prob- ably it was the composition of the gifted editor the Rev. H. M. Baker; Bart: author of "The King of love my Shepherd is" and other fine hymns; The Rev. Dr, Dykes' tune Rivaulx specially, written for this hymn suits it admirably, as might be expected' considering` its makers' undoubted`tal- ent as a composer of hymn -tunes. REPORT OF WINGHAM PUBLIC .
