Under an Eastern Sky
Author: John Long Meter: 6.6.6.4 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Under an eastern sky,
Amid a rabble’s cry
A Man went forth to die,
For me, for me.
2 Thorn-crowned His blessed head,
Blood-stained His ev'ry tread;
Cross-laden, on He sped
For me, for me.
3 Pierced His hands and feet,
Three hours o’er Him beat
Fierce rays of noon-tide heat,
For me, for me.
4 Thus wert Thou made all mine;
Lord, make me wholly Thine;
Grant grace and strength divine
To me, to me.
5 In thought and word and deed,
Thy will to do, O lead
My soul, e’en though it bleed,
To Thee, to Thee. Topics: Book Four: Occasional Selections, Gospel Songs and Hymns; Christian Commission Edification, Encouragement, Testimony Scripture: Hebrews 13:12 Used With Tune: FOR ME

Thomas Rawson Taylor
1807 - 1835 Person Name: T. R. Taylor Meter: 6.6.6.4 Author of "Saviour and Lord of All" in Gloria Deo Taylor, Thomas Rawson, son of the Rev. Thomas Taylor, some time Congregational Minister at Bradford, Yorkshire, was born at Ossett, near Wakefield, May 9, 1807, and educated at the Free School, Bradford, and the Leaf Square Academy, Manchester. From the age of 15 to 18 he was engaged, first in a merchant's, and then in a printer's office. Influenced by strong religious desires, he entered the Airedale Independent College at 18, to prepare for the Congregational ministry. His first and only charge was Howard Street Chapel, Sheffield. This he retained about six months, entering upon the charge in July 1830, and leaving it in the January following. For a short time he acted as classical tutor at Airedale College, but the failure of health which compelled him to leave Sheffield also necessitated his resigning his tutorship. He died March 7, 1835. A volume of his Memoirs and Select Remains, by W. S. Matthews, in which were several poems and a few hymns, was published in 1836. His best known hymn is "I'm but a stranger here". The rest in common use all from his Memoirs, 1836, are:—
1. Earth, with her ten thousand flowers. The love of God.
2. Saviour and Lord of all. Hymn to the Saviour. Altered as "Jesu, Immanuel" in the LeedsHymn Book, 1853.
3. There was a tims when children sang. Sunday School Anniversary.
4. Yes, it is good to worship Thee. Divine Worship. From this "'Tis sweet, 0 God, to sing Thy praise," beginning with st. ii.
5. Yes, there are little ones in heaven. Sunday School Anniversary.
