Author: Howard Kingsbury Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8717 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Once was heard the song of children
By the Savior when on earth;
Joyful in the sacred temple
Shouts of youthful praise had birth;
And hosannas, and hosannas
Loud, to David’s Son broke forth.
2 Palms of victory strewn around Him,
Garments spread beneath His feet;
Prophet of the Lord they crowned Him,
In fair Salem’s crowded street;
While hosannas, while hosannas,
Children sang in accents sweet.
3 Blessèd Savior, now triumphant,
Glorified and throned on high,
Mortal lays, from man or infant,
With the songs of angels vie;
And hosannas, and hosannas,
Swell the chorus of the sky.
4 God o’er all, in glory reigning,
We this day Thy praises sing;
Not with palms Thy pathway strewing,
We would loftier tribute bring;
Glad hosannas, glad hosannas,
To our prophet, priest, and king.
5 O, though humble is our offering,
Deign accept our grateful lays;
Those from children once proceeding
Thou didst deem "perfected praise."
Now hosannas, now hosannas
Savior, Lord, to Thee we raise. Languages: English Tune Title: CALVERAS

Howard Kingsbury
1842 - 1878 Person Name: Howard Kinsbury Author of "Once was heard the songs of children" in Hymnal for the Sunday School Kingsbury, Howard. This name is associated with the popular hymn in days gone by, "Come, let us all unite and sing, God is love!" (God is Love), but concerning the same we have failed to gain any information. We know personally that the hymn was in common use nearly forty years ago (circa 1850).

William Henry Monk
1823 - 1889 Person Name: William H. Monk Composer of "CORONAE" in Hymnal for the Sunday School William H. Monk (b. Brompton, London, England, 1823; d. London, 1889) is best known for his music editing of Hymns Ancient and Modern (1861, 1868; 1875, and 1889 editions). He also adapted music from plainsong and added accompaniments for Introits for Use Throughout the Year, a book issued with that famous hymnal. Beginning in his teenage years, Monk held a number of musical positions. He became choirmaster at King's College in London in 1847 and was organist and choirmaster at St. Matthias, Stoke Newington, from 1852 to 1889, where he was influenced by the Oxford Movement. At St. Matthias, Monk also began daily choral services with the choir leading the congregation in music chosen according to the church year, including psalms chanted to plainsong. He composed over fifty hymn tunes and edited The Scottish Hymnal (1872 edition) and Wordsworth's Hymns for the Holy Year (1862) as well as the periodical Parish Choir (1840-1851).

Anonymous
Person Name: Anon. Author of "The Song of the Children" in The Epworth Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
