Lift Your Heart to Jesus

Author: E. E. Hewitt Hymnal: Sunday School Voices #100 (1910) First Line: When the sky is sparking with the morning light Refrain First Line: Lift your heart to the King above Lyrics: 1 When the sky is sparking with the morning light, When the roses glitter with the dewdrops bright, When around your pathway many blessings throng, Lift your heart to Jesus in a joyful song. Refrain: Lift your heart to the King above, Trusting in his love; Lift a prayer to Jesus as you pass along; When he sends the answer, praise him with a song. 2 When a cloud of trouble hides the sunny blue, Brightly shines a rainbow, with its promise true; When a burden presses, whether grief or care, Lift your heart to Jesus in a silent prayer. [Refrain] 3 When temptations meet you, seek his mighty pow’r, Making you a victor in the trying hour; Whether sun or shadow, on his grace depend; Lift your heart to Jesus,—trust him to the end. [Refrain] Topics: Prayer Languages: English Tune Title: [When the sky is sparking with the morning light]

She was educated in the public schools and after graduation from high school became a teacher. However, she developed a spinal malady which cut short her career and made her a shut-in for many years. During her convalescence, she studied English literature. She felt a need to be useful to her church and began writing poems for the primary department. she went on to teach Sunday school, take an active part in the Philadelphia Elementary Union and become Superintendent of the primary department of Calvin Presbyterian Church.

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Composer of "[When the sky is sparking with the morning light]" in Sunday School Voices Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday­-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
