Fraise Him,:a11 ye stare and light;
Praise the Lord! for He hath spoken,
Worlds His mighty voice obey'd;
Laws, which never shall be broken,
For their guidance He Bath made.
;liar solemn and inspiring anthem,
and after study wrote the music and
dedicated it to the Eutperor of Aust-
ria, who allowed it to become public,''
as "Haydn's Hymn to the Emperor,"
In passing we may note that this
tune was the one sung in
t to the German words, "Deutschland,
' Deutschland, ttber Aller,'
Very often in the hymnbooks a
stanza frcnn Dr; Edward ,Osier's
(1798-18023) hymn "Worship, honor,
glory blessing,"is added to the
Foundling Collection hymn as a dox-
ology, which adds. a note of prayer
to its song of praise, though as a ver-
sion of'a jubiliant Psalm it is quite
perfect as it stands.
War time
c piaster of music with poetic taten
in an inspired moment;
In its way the Iittle hymn is as per..
feet an outburst of praise as Bishol�
Ken's' "Praise God from whom al
blessings flow," and it is- a wonde
that when it first appeared steps wer
not. taken to secure the author's nain
so that it might be revered by tho;
who valued it then, and also by gen
eratons still to conte.
The sheet was headed, "Hymns of
Praise. For Foundling Apprentices,
attending Divine Service to :Return
Thanks." Three of the other hymns
had the author's name, as well as the
name of the music to which each of
thein was to be sung. This one is
merely headed "Hymn, from Psalm
CXLVIII,".
That Foundling Collection, as it is
often called was notable in more than
one respect. James Ednteston, an
architect of note wrote for it several
hymns including: "Lead us, heavenly
Father, lead us," sung at royal 'mar-
riages, -and "Saviour, breathe an Ev-
ening Blessing." "Spirit of mercy,
truth and love," and "Great God to
Thee our songs we raise" also came
from the same book as did tunes es-
pecially composed for it.
Sonte 'hymn -books wrongfully as-
cribe our hymn to . Rey. John hemp
tlorne,` Prebendary of , Litchfield,
Eng„ who compiled a collection of
Psalms in 1810, who however only ex-
tracted hymns from the Foundling
Collection. Other books credit Bish-
op .Mant with its authorship, confus-
ing it with the good bishop's hymn
,``Praise the Lord, Whose mighty -
wonders." •
As hinted previously the words may
have been written to fit the tune said
to have been composed by one of the
world's greatest'musicians, F. J, Hay-
dn, an Austrian who lived from 1782
to' 1809 as a national air, after hear-
ing. Great Britain's National Anthem
finely rendered in'. London. Accord -
ng to one authority he was fired with
he desire to give his country as size -
Praise the Lord! for He is glorious;
Never shall His promise fail;
God bath made His Saints victorious,
Sin and death shall not prevail,
Fraise the God of our salvation;
Hosts on high His power proclaim;
Heav'n and earth, and all creation,
Laud and magnify His Nae!
There is a mystery about the gen-
esis of this hymn which from the pre-
• sent appearances never will be solv-
ed. Who wrote it, where it came
from, we cannot tell. All that is
definitely known of its origin is'that
in a copy of a 1797 edition of a great-
ly valued hymn -book, called "Psalms,
Hymns and Anthems: sung in the
Chapel of the Hospital for the Main-
tenance and Education of Exposed
and Deserted Young Children, Lon-
don," there is found pasted in at the
back a four -paged sheet containing
the words of five hymns, includnig
'Praise the Lord, ye heav'ns; adore
Him, Music 'by Haydn."
Just that; our hymn being set out
in four verses of four lines each.
There would be nothing' peculiar a-
bout that arrangement, had it not
been specifically indicated that it was
sung to the eight line tune "The Au-
strian Hymn," which made it necess-
ary to join the verses, two and t��to.
The title as given, in the masted -in
sheet would perhaps indicate that the
words were written for Haydh's tune,
to which they are always sung. The
rhythm,- the lilt of the words fit the
music perfectly, and may indicate that r
they were composed by a. first rate t
