Jesus, Joy of Our Desiring
Author: Martin Janus; Robert Seymour Bridges Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 25 hymnals First Line: Jesu, joy of man's desiring Lyrics: 1 Jesus, joy of our desiring,
holy wisdom, love most bright;
drawn by thee, our souls aspiring
soar to uncreated light.
Word of God, our flesh that fashioned,
with the fire of life impassioned,
striving still to truth unknown,
soaring, dying round thy throne.
2 Through the way where hope is guiding,
hark, what peaceful music rings;
where the flock, in thee confiding,
drink of joy from deathless springs.
Theirs is beauty's fairest pleasure;
theirs is wisdom's holiest treasure.
Thou dost ever lead thine own
in the love of joys unknown.

Jesus, Joy of Our Desiring
Love, the fount of light from heaven
Author: N. F. S. Grundtvig Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Love, the fount of light from heaven,
Is the root and source of life;
Therefore God’s decrees are given
With His loving-kindness rife.
As our Savior God declareth,
And the Spirit witness beareth,
As we in God’s peace do prove,
God is light and God is love.
2 Love doth crown the life eternal,
Love the brightness is of light,
Therefore on His throne supernal
Jesus sits in glory bright;
He, the Light and Life of heaven,
Who Himself for us hath given,
Still abides and reigns above
In His Father’s boundless love.
3 Love, alone the law fulfilling,
Is the bond of perfectness,
Love, who came a victim willing,
Paid our debt and brought us peace;
Therefore love and peace in union
Ever grow in sweet communion,
That through love we may abide
One with Him who for us died. Topics: The Church Year Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity; The Church Year Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity; God Loving Used With Tune: [Love, the fount of light from heaven]

Lord! Thou Source of All Perfection
Author: Balthazar Muenter Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord! Thou source of all perfection,
Fountain of eternal love,
Fill the famished soul that thirsteth
For the waters from above.
From all evil passions purge me,
In the path of justice urge me,
Teach my heart to love but Thee,
Thou whoever lovest me.
2 Lord, in Thee I have my being,
All I am to Thee I owe,
Ev'ry heav'nward aspiration,
Ev'ry thought from Thee doth flow;
Of Thy goodness and Thy power
Blessings daily on us shower;
Fount of heav'nly Love Thou art,
Spring Thou up within my heart.
3 Blessed stream of our atonement
From the cross of Christ that flowed,
Fellowship with Him in glory,
Hope of all eternal good,
On my path His light and leading,
And His grace, all grace exceeding,--
All the blessings from above
Prompt me to return Thy love.
4 Grant, O God, the power to love Thee
Here in truth and holiness,
Till my love be full and perfect
In the realms of heavenly bliss,
When, translated into glory,
With Thy countenance shining o'er me,
I shall drink with saints above
From the well-spring of Thy love.
Amen. Topics: Church Year Trinity Season; Sixth Sunday after Easter; Trinty, Second Sunday; Trinity, Eighteenth Sunday; Atonement; Prayer for Love Scripture: Matthew 22:34-46 Used With Tune: TVIFLAN UR MIN SJÄL FÖRSVINNE

Hintze Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Composer of "ROSENMÜLLER" in American Lutheran Hymnal Partly as a result of the Thirty Years' War and partly to further his musical education, Jakob Hintze (b. Bernau, Germany, 1622; d. Berlin, Germany, 1702) traveled widely as a youth, including trips to Sweden and Lithuania. In 1659 he settled in Berlin, where he served as court musician to the Elector of Brandenburg from 1666 to 1695.

Johann Schop
1590 - 1667 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Composer of "JESU, JOY OF MAN'S DESIRING" in The United Methodist Hymnal Johann Schop Germany 1590-1667. Born at lower Saxony, Germany, he became a Lutheran composer and violinist, much admired for his virtuoso and technical ability. In 1614 Duke Friedrich Ulrich made him a probationary musician in the Hofkapelle at Wolfenbuttel. He performed playing various instruments, but excelled as a violinist. He was engaged permanently in 1615, but the same year he responded to a summons to join the flourishing musical establishment of King Christian IV of Denmark in Copenhagen. There he met English viol player, William Brade, who had earlier been in service to Hamburg, Germany (and may have taught Schop there). Schops compositions for the violin set impressive demands for that area at that time. He also played other instruments, including the violi, lute, cornet, trombon, trumpet, zinke, and violin (virtuoso). In 1619 Schop and Brade left Copenhagen to escape the plague. He then went to Iburg, where he worked at the courtof the Osnabruck bishop, Philipp Sigismund. Schop had such a reputation that he soon acquired a post as Kapellmeister at an establishment in Hamburg and was the first member of the council music. In 1621 he was its director and the leading municipal violinist in that city, which offered him a substantial income for his participation in the church music program. He also was organist at the Jacobikirche. In 1634 he again traveled to Copenhagen with Heinrich Schutz and Heinrich Albert for the wedding of Crown Prince Christian. He won a violin contest there. Few German violinists were of his caliber musically. He returned to Hamburg, and the Danish king tried several times to woo him back to Denmark, but he stayed in Hamburg, becoming a director of music. He published books of violin music in 4 to 6 parts. He wrote two books of well-loved dance pieces and sacred concertos. He co-founded a school of song writing there in Hamburg with Thomas Selle. Many of his tunes were writtten for fellow townsmen and friend Johann Rist. Some of his music was performed at the Peace of Westphalia celebrations. Some of his tunes were used by chants in a cantata. Schop was married (wife’s name not found) and they had two sons, Johann II, and Albert, who also became musicians. He died in Hamburg.

Small Church Music
Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Editors: Ernst C. Homburg Description:
The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling
to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid
1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of
this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset
of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano
with organ versions. All recordings are in MP3 format.
Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per
month.
The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse.
Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo
and pitch to suit their local needs.
