LONDON: NOVELLO AND CO., 69, DEAN STREET, SOHO, AND 35, POULTRY. NOVELLO AND CO., TYPOGRAPHICAL MUSIC AND GENERAL PRINTERS, DEAN STREET, SOHO, LONDON. PREFACE.
The Compilers of Hymns Ancient and Modern, for use in the Services of the Church, desire to take the opportunity, afforded by the publication of this edition with accompanying Tunes, of expressing their deep thankful ness for the very large amount of kind and valuable assistance which they have received in the compilation hoth of the words and music. Original contributions, translations, careful criticisms, and thoughtful suggestions, as well as permission to make extracts from their published works, have been freely given by many who, they well know, will neither expect nor desire to receive more than this general but most hearty assurance of their gratitude. But to a few (especially those whose names cannot but be linked to their tunes) their thanks must be given separately ; to the re vered author of the Christian Year, for leave to make extracts from it, and for Hymns 52, 119, and 212, (originally printed in the Salisbury Hymn-book) as well as for the use of unpublished translations, and for much careful criticism ; to Miss Catherine Winkworth, for her kind per mission to print Hymns 112, 171, 191, 208, 233, and 238, from the Lyra Germanica ; to Mr. Novello, for his generous permission to make extracts from the Hymnal Noted ; to the Rev. Thomas Helmore, not only for his past labours, of which they have reaped so much fruit, but also for his friendly co-operation in this work ; to the Rev. J. B. Dykes, Precentor of Durham Cathedral, for several new tunes, especially that to the " Dies irse," and for much valuable assistance ; to the Rev. Sir Frederick A. Gore Ouseley, Bart., Professor of Music in the University of Oxford, and Pre centor of Hereford Cathedral, for several new tunes, and for his kind revision and approval of the larger portion of the book (the unbarmi IV. PREFACE. melodies of course being excepted) ; to the Rev. H. L. Jenner, Vicar of Pres ton-next- Wingham, and Hon. Mus. Sec. to the Ecclesiological Society, for the new tunes to Hymns 164 and 220, and for permission to print that to Hymn 142, second part ; to Dr. Gauntlett, for the use of several tunes ; to Dr. G. J. Elvey, for the use of the tune to Hymns 110 and 223 ; to Mr. Turle, Organist of Westminster Abbey, for the use of the tune to Hymn 149 ; to Mr. Reinagle, of Oxford, for the use of the tune to Hymns 12, 185, and 260 ; to Mr. Irons, Organist of Southwell Collegiate Church, to Mr. Arthur Brown, Organist of Brentwood, to Mr. Hampton, Choir master of St. Michael's College, Tenbury, to Mr. John B. Wilkes, lately Organist at Monkland, Herefordshire, for contributions of new tunes ; to the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Argyll and the Isles, for permission to print the tune to the third part of Hymn 142 ; to the Rev. G. Mather, for the use of Mr. Monk's tune to the Easter Hymn ; to the Rev. W. H. Havergal, for the use of his valuable collection of Old Church Psalmody ; to Mr. Metzler, for his free permission to use tune No. 66 in the collection of Redhead's tunes published by him ; and lastly, though by no means in the last degree, to their talented coadjutor, Mr. W. H. Monk, to whose extensive musical knowledge, good taste, and industry, they are so deeply indebted. They ought also to mention the kind permission they have received to make use of the tune and chants bearing the beloved name of Arthur II. D. Troyte ; in justice to whose memory it is but right to add, that had they been published during his life-time he would no doubt have disclaimed for at least one of the latter the merit of originality ; that to Hymn 145 being evidently adapted from a chant by Dr. W. Hayes. With regard to the Hymns they have only to say, further, that in the very spirit, as they hope and believe, of the English Prayer-book, they have be'en gathered alike from the treasures of antiquity and from modern sources, and are the result of united prayer as well as united work. PREFACE.
With regard to the Tunes it may be as well to add a few general remarks. First, as to the unbarred melodies, such as those to Hymns 3, 65, 84, 94, &o. These are exclusively from ancient sources ; and are, unlike modern tunes and also many ancient (such as those to Hymns 22, 31, &c), incapable of being expressed in an ordinary symmetrical form. For the sake of those persons who find a difficulty in their execution, or who prefer the more regular rhythm of modern music, a second tune is added or referred to ; unless, as e.g. in Hymn 84, the tune on the opposite page is itself suitable to both Hymns. Secondly, as to the speed at which each tune should be sung. It has been thought best on the whole to leave this to tho individual judgment of Directors of Choirs. The size of the congregation, the strength of the choir, &c, may often make a quicker or slower pace desirable. But as a rule it may be said that ordinary congregational singing is too slow, and it would be perhaps better to err on the side of quickness than slowness ; re membering, of course, that hymns or tunes in themselves penitential or solemn must never be sung too fast. Such tunes e.g. as those to Hymns 78 and 82 would be utterly spoilt by being sung fast ; whereas on the other hand those to Hymns 108 and 146 would lose all their life and vigour if they were not sung quickly. Thirdly, as to the pitch of the tunes. This, like the speed, may de pend on circumstances. What answers well in one church may not in another. A pitch suitable for harmonized singing may not be so convenient for voices in unison. There is no reason, therefore, why any tune should not be transposed when required ; although the pitch here given is, when practicable, the best. The ancient melodies should generally be sung in unison. Fourthly, as to the dotted semibreve often found at the end of a phrase. There are many ways in which even so simple a composition as a Hymn VI. PREFACE. tune may be written on paper. In that which is here adopted, for typo graphical reasons, the dotted semibreve is necessary ; but in performance it must not be so fully sustained as to impede the flow of the melody. On the other hand, a closing minim may be somewhat lengthened. Fifthly, as to the number and arrangement of the tunes. The various wants and capabilities of choirs and congregations have been carefully con sidered iu this matter. Some well-known tunes will be found for every season, as well as those which are new, or gathered for the first time from the rich stores of German music. Each Hymn has been arranged to that tune which seemed to be the most appropriate for it ; and when the same tune is used for more than one Hymn, it will be found that there is some correspondence in the character of the words or seasons. A Lenten tune, for example, is never given for Eastertide, but may be suitably used on a Friday (Nos. 29 and 79). The Hymn which announces the first Advent of Christ (No. 35), and that which tells of His entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday (No. 87), have as really, though less obviously, somewhat in common, and are therefore fitly arranged to the same tune. The "joy of Harvest " and that of Easter are not so unconnected as to make the same tune inappropriate both to Hymn 110 and Hymn 203. And so of many other hymns. To this, as to all other parts of their work, there has been considerable thought given ; and they venture to hope that, notwithstanding many imperfections, the result of their united efforts will be acceptable to their brethren in Christ, and promote, in some degree, the greater glory cf God.

What though the spicy breezes Blow soft o'er Ceylon's isle, Though every prospect pleases, And only man is vile ; In vain with lavish kindness The gifts of God are strown, The heathen in his blindness Bows down to wood and stone. Can we whose souls are lighted With wisdom from on high, Can we to men benighted The lamp of life deny ? Salvation ! oh, Salvation ! The joyful sound proclaim, Till each remotest nation Has learnt Messiah's Name. Waft, waft, ye winds, His story, And you, ye waters, roll, Till like a sea of glory It spreads from pole to pole ; Till o'er our ransomed nature The Lamb for sinners slain, Redeemer, King, Creator, In bliss returns to reign.

To set the heart and face. Therefore we come before Thee now, To all Thy Priests Thy truth reveal, With words of humble prayer, And make Thy judgments clear ; Beseeching of Thy love, that Thou Make Thou Thy Deacons full of zeal, Would'st send more labourers there. And humble and sincere. Not for our land alone we pray, Give to their flocks a lowly mind Though that above the rest, To hear and to obey ; The realms and islands far away, That each and all may mercy find O let them all be blest.

No change Thy mercy knows. The sun is ruler of the day, Why waver then our troubled hearts ? The silver moon of night, Thine is a Father's care : The starry hosts adorn the sky And they, eternal life who seek, In ordered ranks of light. Eternal life shall share. But e'en that glorious sun must set, All praise, all glory be ascribed And knows his going down ; To God, the One in Three, That silver moon must wax and wane ; Who bids us cast our care on Him, The stars their courses own.
