This pretty little harvest hymn was
written by the Reverend John Hamp-
den Gurney, M.A.., Prebendary of St,
Pancras, The name Gurney, as those
who followed these articles on hymns
will remember, has figured largely
British hymnology.
•Prebendary Gurney,who was born
n 1O2,, and ,410d in 1862, was the son
of a very 'Celebrated 'lawyer whose
talents raised him to the great min-,
ence of a Baron of the English Cot.rt
of Exchequer, 'The baron had his res-
idents in Sergeant's Inn, one of the
well-known Inns of Court, Fleet St.,
London, Eng., and there the futnre
prebendary was born;
Originally intended for the bar he
took a :goad ,degree at Trinity College,
Cambridge, and then studied theolo,:zy
having .made up his mind to devote
himself to the work of the Christiano
ministry,
1827 he was 'ordained to a ciiracy in
Yohn 'Wycliffe's- old parish of Lutter-
worth, in Leicestershire. His -prefer-
ment ,to his cathedral position eatre
thirty years later, Possessed of bound-

las energy he threw himself into ev-
e..y good work possible, and was es-
pecially well-known as a hymnal com-
piler and an authority upon hymns
and their writers.
Several of his own hymns have come
into common use, including the path-
etic "Lord, as to Thy dear cross we
flec," "We saw Thee not when Thou
didst conic," "Great King of nations,
hear our prayer," etc.
Our hymn for this week, was writ-
ten 1851 for a, harvest thanksgiving
service at Marleybone, London, and
was published that same year in
"Psalms and Hymns," a hymnal pre-
pared for the use of the parish. It

soon made its way into the larger
hymnals, and now it is well-known
wherever the English language is
spoken. Although not intended sole-
ly for such use, it has become a fav-
orite hymn .for children's services at
this time of the year, and it is well
that the little ones should have their
own part in recognizing 'God's natural
blessings and in , drawing from the
harvest such lessons as our blessed
Saviour Himself inculcated when with
us here upon earth.
It was a Miss Gurney, it will be re-
membered, who wrorte for her sister's
wedding the fine'lynin "0 Perfect
love".
The Gurney family have a long and
honorable history, the first bearer of
the name in England, being Hugh de
Gurney, one of the Norman nobles
who accompanied William the Con-
queror into the country. He was
granted great possessions in Norfolk -
shire, and Norwich became the family
headquarters. When they became
Quakers is not very clear, but as mem-
bers of that peace -professing sect and
as philanthropists they became pery
well known. One daughter of the
house was the famous prison reform-
er, Mrs. Elizabeth Fry, another the
widely esteemed wife of the author
and philanthropist Sir Thomas Fowler
Buxton. One branch of the Gurney
family became a famous banking firm
and acquired fabulous weath, conduc-
ting the greatest discounting house in
the world, which, however, passed in-
to the hands of a joint-stock com-
pany, and failed for a prodigious sum
in the eigl.te..m-shties.
But although successful in many de-
partments of life, the Gurneys have all
through their long history been not-
ed for their attention to religious mat-
ters, and for their constant care for
the spiritual welfare of their fellow
men.
The tune Holyrood which it is com-
monly agreed suits the hymn remark-
ably was written by James Watson.
of whom the present writer knows no
more than that be lived in Great Brit-
ain from 1816 to 1880.
