Lord, hear the right, regard my cry

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, hear the right, regard my cry, unto my prayer give heed, that doth not in hypocrisy from feigned lips proceed. 2 And from before thy presence let my judgment come to me; turn thou thine eyes to upright things, look thou on equity. 3 My heart thou provest, and by night dost visit and me try, but findest nought; for my intent my mouth doth not belie. 4 As for men’s works, I, by the word that from thy lips doth flow, have kept myself out of the paths wherein destroyers go. 5 Hold up my goings, Lord, me guide in those thy paths divine, so that my footsteps may not slide out of those ways of thine. 6 I called have on thee, O God, because thou wilt me hear: that thou may’st hearken to my speech, to me incline thine ear. 7 Thy wondrous loving-kindness show, thou that, by thy right hand, sav’st them that trust in thee from those that up against them stand. 8 As the apple of the eye me keep; in thy wings' shade me hide 9 from wasting deadly foes, who me beset on every side. 10 In their own fat they are inclosed; their mouth speaks loftily. 11 Our steps they compass, and to earth down bowing set their eye. 12 He like unto a lion is that’s greedy of his prey, or lion young, which lurking doth in secret places stay. 13 Arise, and disappoint my foe, and cast him down, O Lord: and from the wicked man my soul deliver by thy sword. 14 From worldly men, Lord, by thy hand let me delivered be, who only in this present life their part and portion see; Whom with thy treasure thou dost fill: they many sons receive; and of their great abundance they unto their children leave. 15 But as for me, I thine own face in righteousness will see; And with thy likeness, when I wake, I satisfied shall be.

Michael Haydn

1737 - 1806 Composer of "SALZBURG" in The Presbyterian Book of Praise Johann Michael Haydn Austria 1737-1806. Born at Rohrau, Austria, the son of a wheelwright and town mayor (a very religious man who also played the harp and was a great influence on his sons' religious thinking), and the younger brother of Franz Joseph Haydn, he became a choirboy in his youth at the Cathedral of St. Stephen in Vienna, as did his brother, Joseph, an exceptional singer. For that reason boys both were taken into the church choir. Michael was a brighter student than Joseph, but was expelled from music school when his voice broke at age 17. The brothers remained close all their lives, and Joseph regarded Michael's religious works superior to his own. Michael played harpsichord, violin, and organ, earning a precarious living as a freelance musician in his early years. In 1757 he became kapellmeister to Archbishop, Sigismund of Grosswardein, in Hungary, and in 1762 concertmaster to Archbishop, Hieronymous of Salzburg, where he remained the rest of his life (over 40 years), also assuming the duties of organist at the Church of St. Peter in Salzburg, presided over by the Benedictines. He also taught violin at the court. He married the court singer, Maria Magdalena Lipp in 1768, daughter of the cathedral choir-master, who was a very pious women, and had such an affect on her husband, trending his inertia and slothfulness into wonderful activity. They had one daughter, Aloysia Josepha, in 1770, but she died within a year. He succeeded Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, an intimate friend, as cathedral organist in 1781. He also taught music to Carl Maria von Weber. His musical reputation was not recognized fully until after World War II. He was a prolific composer of music, considered better than his well-known brother at composing religious works. He produced some 43 symphonies,12 concertos, 21 serenades, 6 quintets, 19 quartets, 10 trio sonatas, 4 due sonatas, 2 solo sonatas, 19 keyboard compositions, 3 ballets, 15 collections of minuets (English and German dances), 15 marches and miscellaneous secular music. He is best known for his religious works (well over 400 pieces), which include 47 antiphons, 5 cantatas, 65 canticles, 130 graduals, 16 hymns, 47 masses, 7 motets, 65 offertories, 7 oratorios, 19 Psalms settings, 2 requiems, and 42 other compositions. He also composed 253 secular vocals of various types. He did not like seeing his works in print, and kept most in manuscript form. He never compiled or cataloged his works, but others did it later, after his death. Lothar Perger catalogued his orchestral works in 1807 and Nikolaus Lang did a biographical sketch in 1808. In 1815 Anton Maria Klafsky cataloged his sacred music. More complete cataloging has been done in the 1980s and 1990s by Charles H Sherman and T Donley Thomas. Several of Michael Haydn's works influenced Mozart. Haydn died at Salzburg, Austria. John Perry
