Triune God, all thought transcending, Fain would we a temple raise Worthy of Thy loving kindness, Hallowed thro' all earthly days. 2 Make these stones a hallowed symbol, Saints of God who run may read, Types of those whom, blest Redeemer, Thou from sin and woe hast freed, Pillars Thou hast hewn and shapen, Thine elect in every deed! 3 Lord! restore the gates of Sion, Let her courts with praise resound! May Thy light and love descending Shed their radiant joys around, So shall man reveal Thy glory: Earth, like heaven, be hallowed ground! Amen.

Charles F. Gounod

1818 - 1893 Person Name: C. Gounod Composer of "ROUEN" in The Church Hymnal Charles F. Gounod (b. Paris, France, 1818; d. St. Cloud, France, 1893) was taught initially by his pianist mother. Later he studied at the Paris Conservatory, won the "Grand Prix de Rome" in 1839, and continued his musical training in Vienna, Berlin, and Leipzig. Though probably most famous for his opera Faust (1859) and other instrumental music (including his Meditation sur le Prelude de Bach, to which someone added the Ave Maria text for soprano solo), Gounod also composed church music-four Masses, three Requiems, and a Magnificat. His smaller works for church use were published as Chants Sacres. When he lived in England (1870-1875), Gounod became familiar with British cathedral music and served as conductor of what later became the Royal Choral Society. Bert Polman
