How Blest Are They Who Hear
Author: J. N. Brun, 1745-1816; O. H. Smeby, 1851-1929 Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 12 hymnals First Line: How blest are they who hear God's Word Lyrics: 1 How blest are they who hear God's Word,
And keep and heed what they have heard!
They daily grow in wisdom.
Their light shines brighter day by day,
And while they tread life's weary way,
They have the oil of gladness
To soothe their pain and sadness.
2 God's Word a treasure is to me,
Through sorrow's night my sun shall be,
The shield of faith in battle.
The Father's hand hath written there
My title as His child and heir,
"The kingdom's thine forever."
That promise faileth never.
3 Today I was my Savior's guest;
My soul was here so richly blest,
The bread of Life receiving.
O may thereby my faith prevail
So that its fruits shall never fail
Till my account is given
Before the throne in heaven!

Jesus, Thou my Heart's Desire
Author: Lina Sandell Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou my heart's Desire,
Blesséd Lord and only Saviour,
Let my soul find rest in Thee,
Let my soul find rest in Thee.
Let Thy weary dove retire
To Thy bosom safe forever.
Flying o'er this restless sea
Home to rest in peace with Thee.
2 Thou alone canst satisfy me,
And assuage my thirst so burning
With the water from life's well,
With the water from life's well.
Saviour, Thou canst sanctify me;
For Thy grace my heart is yearning;
With Thy fulness in me dwell,
Blesséd Lord, and all is well.
Amen.

M. B. Landstad
1802 - 1880 Person Name: Magnus B. Landstad, 1802-80 Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.7 Author of "Oh, Blessed Home, Where Man and Wife" in Christian Worship (1993) Magnus Brostrup Landstad (born 7 October 1802 in Måsøy, Norway and died 8 October 1880 in Kristiania) was a Norwegian minister, psalmist and poet who published the first collection of authentic Norwegian traditional ballads in 1853. This work was criticized for unscientific methods, but today it is commonly accepted that he contributed significantly to the preservation of the traditional ballads.
Landstad lived with his father Hans Landstad (1771–1838) who was also a minister, first in 1806 to Øksnes, to Vinje in 1811 and to Seljord in 1819. He took a theological degree (cand. theol) in 1827, and worked after that as the resident chaplain in Gausdal for six years. After that he worked in different parishes in Telemark, Østfold before he became minister of Sandar in Vestfold in 1859. He married Wilhelmine Margrete Marie Lassen, in 1828. He is well known for introducing popular, contemporary Norwegian language into the hymns he wrote, contributing significantly to the spirit of Norwegian romantic nationalism which grew in Norway in this period.
His greatest single achievement was the Landstad Hymnbook (Kirkepsalmebog), which with later revisions was used in Norwegian (bokmål) parishes from 1869 until 1985. The current official church hymnbook contains a lot of his hymns and his translations of foreign hymns.
He was the cousin of Hans Peter Schnitler Krag.
The Landstad-institute, which lies in Seljord, is named after him.
He was a great grandfather of Magny Landstad, also a famous writer.

Small Church Music
Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.7 Editors: Paul Gerhardt 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.
Copyright notice: Rev. Clyde McLennan, performer in this collection, has assigned his performer rights in this collection to Hymnary.org. Non-commercial use of these recordings is permitted. For permission to use them for any other purposes, please contact manager@hymnary.org.
