Author: Thomas B. Pollock Hymnal: The Hymnal for Boys and Girls #158 (1936) Meter: 7.7.7.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, once an infant small, Cradles in the oxen's stall, Though the Lord and God of all: Hear us, Holy Jesus. 2 Be thou with us every day, In our work and in our play, When we learn and when we pray. Hear us, Holy Jesus. 3 When we lie asleep at night, Ever may thy angels bright Keep us safe till morning light: Hear us, Holy Jesus. 4 Make us brave without a fear, Make us happy, full of cheer, Sure that thou art always near: Hear us, Holy Jesus. 5 May we prize our Christian name, May we guard it free from blame, Fearing all that causes shame: Hear us, Holy Jesus. 6 May we ever try to be From all sinful tempers free, Pure and gentle, Lord, like thee: Hear us, Holy Jesus. 7 Jesus, Son of God most high, Who didst in a manger lie, Who upon the cross didst die: Hear us, Holy Jesus.

Charlie D. Tillman

1861 - 1943 Composer of "[Jesus once an infant small]" in The Revival No. 4 Tillman, Charles "Charlie" Davis. (Tallahassee, Talapoosa County, Alabama, March 20, 1861--1943). Married Anna Killingsworth (Dec. 24, 1889); four daughters, one son (d.1910). --Keith C. Clark, DNAH Archives

Arthur Sullivan

1842 - 1900 Person Name: Sir Arthur Seymour Sullivan, (1842- ) Composer of "SEPTEM VOCES" in The Praise Hymnal Arthur Seymour Sullivan (b Lambeth, London. England. 1842; d. Westminster, London, 1900) was born of an Italian mother and an Irish father who was an army band­master and a professor of music. Sullivan entered the Chapel Royal as a chorister in 1854. He was elected as the first Mendelssohn scholar in 1856, when he began his studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London. He also studied at the Leipzig Conservatory (1858-1861) and in 1866 was appointed professor of composition at the Royal Academy of Music. Early in his career Sullivan composed oratorios and music for some Shakespeare plays. However, he is best known for writing the music for lyrics by William S. Gilbert, which produced popular operettas such as H.M.S. Pinafore (1878), The Pirates of Penzance (1879), The Mikado (1884), and Yeomen of the Guard (1888). These operettas satirized the court and everyday life in Victorian times. Although he com­posed some anthems, in the area of church music Sullivan is best remembered for his hymn tunes, written between 1867 and 1874 and published in The Hymnary (1872) and Church Hymns (1874), both of which he edited. He contributed hymns to A Hymnal Chiefly from The Book of Praise (1867) and to the Presbyterian collection Psalms and Hymns for Divine Worship (1867). A complete collection of his hymns and arrangements was published posthumously as Hymn Tunes by Arthur Sullivan (1902). Sullivan steadfastly refused to grant permission to those who wished to make hymn tunes from the popular melodies in his operettas. Bert Polman

Thomas Benson Pollock

1836 - 1896 Person Name: Rev. Thomas Benson Pollock, *1836-1896) Author of "Jesus, once an infant small" in The Praise Hymnal Pollock, Thomas Benson, M.A., was born in 1836, and graduated at Trinity College, Dublin, B.A. 1859, M.A. 1863, where he also gained the Vice-Chancellor's Prize for English Verse in 1855. Taking Holy Orders in 1861, he was Curate of St. Luke's, Leek, Staffordshire; St. Thomas's, Stamford Hill, London; and St. Alban's, Birmingham. Mr. Pollock is a most successful writer of metrical Litanies. His Metrical Litanies for Special Services and General Use, Mowbray, Oxford, 1870, and other compositions of the same kind contributed subsequently to various collections, have greatly enriched modern hymnbooks. To the 1889 Supplemental Hymns to Hymns Ancient & Modern, Mr. Pollock contributed two hymns, “We are soldiers of Christ, Who is mighty to save" (Soldiers of Christ), and "We have not known Thee as we ought" (Seeking God), but they are by no means equal to his Litanies in beauty and finish. -- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907) =================== Pollock, T.
