Hymnal: Hymnal #38 (1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lo! hills and mountains shall bring forth
The happy fruits of peace,
Which all the land shall own to be
The work of righteousness;
2 While David's Son our needy race
Shall rule with gentle sway;
And from their humble neck shall take
Oppressive yokes away.
3 In every heart Thy awful fear
Shall then be rooted fast,
As long as sun and moon endure,
Or time itself shall last.
4 He shall descend like rain, that cheers
The meadow's second birth;
Or like warm showers, whose gentle drops
Refresh the thirsty earth.
5 In His blest days the just and good
Shall spring up all around;
The happy land shall everywhere
With endless peace abound.
6 His uncontroll'd dominion shall
From sea to sea extend;
Begin at proud Euphrates' stream,
At nature's limits end.
7 To Him the savage nations round
Shall bow their servile heads;
His vanquish'd foes shall lick the dust,
Where He His conquest spreads.
8 The kings of Tarshish and the isles
Shall costly presents bring;
From spicy Sheba gifts shall come,
And wealthy Saba's king.
9 To Him shall every king on earth
His humble homage pay;
And differing nations gladly join
To own His righteous sway.
10 For He shall set the needy free,
When they for succour cry;
Shall save the helpless and the poor,
And all their wants supply.
11 For Him shall constant prayer be made,
Through all His prosperous days:
His just dominion shall afford
A lasting theme of praise.
12 The memory of His glorious name
Through endless years shall run;
His spotless fame shall shine as bright
And lasting as the sun.
13 In Him the nations of the world
Shall be completely bless'd,
And His unbounded happiness
by every tongue confess'd.
14 Then bless'd be God, the mighty Lord,
The God Whom Israel fears;
Who only wondrous in His works
Beyond compare, appears.
15 Let earth be with His glory fill'd
For ever bless His name;
Whilst to His praise the listening world
Their glad assent proclaim.

Arthur Sullivan
1842 - 1900 Person Name: Arthur S. Sullivan Arranger of "NOEL" in Christian Chorals 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.
