Purer yet and purer

Author: Anon. Hymnal: Joyful Lays #81 (1884) First Line: Purer yet and purer I would be in mind Lyrics: 1 Purer yet and purer I would be in mind, Dearer yet and dearer Every duty find; Hoping still, and trusting God without a fear, Patiently believing He will make all clear. 2 Calmer yet and calmer Trial bear and pain, Surer yet and surer Peace at last to gain; Suffering still and doing, To his will resigned, And to God subduing Heart and will and mind. 3 Quicker yet and quicker Ever onward press, Firmer yet and firmer Step as I progress; Higher yet and higher Out of clouds and night, Nearer yet and nearer, Rising to the light. Scripture: Romans 8:29 Languages: English Tune Title: [Purer yet and purer I would be in mind]

Author of "Purer yet and purer" in The 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.

John Bacchus Dykes

1823 - 1876 Person Name: John B. Dykes Composer of "[MARY MAGDALENE]" in The Hymnal As a young child John Bacchus Dykes (b. Kingston-upon-Hull' England, 1823; d. Ticehurst, Sussex, England, 1876) took violin and piano lessons. At the age of ten he became the organist of St. John's in Hull, where his grandfather was vicar. After receiving a classics degree from St. Catherine College, Cambridge, England, he was ordained in the Church of England in 1847. In 1849 he became the precentor and choir director at Durham Cathedral, where he introduced reforms in the choir by insisting on consistent attendance, increasing rehearsals, and initiating music festivals. He served the parish of St. Oswald in Durham from 1862 until the year of his death. To the chagrin of his bishop, Dykes favored the high church practices associated with the Oxford Movement (choir robes, incense, and the like). A number of his three hundred hymn tunes are still respected as durable examples of Victorian hymnody. Most of his tunes were first published in Chope's Congregational Hymn and Tune Book (1857) and in early editions of the famous British hymnal, Hymns Ancient and Modern. Bert Polman

Philip Phillips

1834 - 1895 Composer of "EXCELSIOR" in The Standard Church Hymnal Phillips, Philip, commonly known as the "Singing Pilgrim," was born in Chautauqua County, N. York, Aug. 13, 1834. Although engaged in farming for a time, from an early age he devoted himself to music, and ultimately devoted himself to the work of a "Singing Evangelist," in which capacity he has visited most English-speaking countries. His popular hymnals are: (1) Early Blossoms, 1860; (2) Musical Leaves, 1862; and (3) The Singing Pilgrim, 1866. In these works he published one or two hymns, including "I have heard of a Saviour's love" (The love of Christ), as in I. D. Sankey's Sacred Songs and Solos, 1878. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)
