Joseph Barnby

1838 - 1896 Composer of "JOSEPH" in The Cyber Hymnal Joseph Barnby (b. York, England, 1838; d. London, England, 1896) An accomplished and popular choral director in England, Barnby showed his musical genius early: he was an organist and choirmaster at the age of twelve. He became organist at St. Andrews, Wells Street, London, where he developed an outstanding choral program (at times nicknamed "the Sunday Opera"). Barnby introduced annual performances of J. S. Bach's St. John Passion in St. Anne's, Soho, and directed the first performance in an English church of the St. Matthew Passion. He was also active in regional music festivals, conducted the Royal Choral Society, and composed and edited music (mainly for Novello and Company). In 1892 he was knighted by Queen Victoria. His compositions include many anthems and service music for the Anglican liturgy, as well as 246 hymn tunes (published posthumously in 1897). He edited four hymnals, including The Hymnary (1872) and The Congregational Sunday School Hymnal (1891), and coedited The Cathedral Psalter (1873). Bert Polman

Darkly Rose the Guilty Morning

Author: Joseph Anstice Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Darkly rose the guilty morning, When, the King of glory scorning, Raged the fierce Jerusalem; See the Christ, His cross upbearing, See Him stricken, spit on, wearing The thorn-plated diadem. 2. Not the crowd whose cries assailed Him, Nor the hands that rudely nailed Him, Slew Him on the cursèd tree; Ours the sin from Heav’n that called Him, Ours the sin whose burden galled Him In the sad Gethsemane. 3. For our sins, of glory emptied, He was fasting, lone, and tempted, He was slain on Calvary; Yet He for His murderers pleaded; Lord, by us that prayer is needed, We have pierced, yet trust in Thee. 4. In our wealth and tribulation, By Thy precious cross and passion, By Thy blood and agony, By Thy glorious resurrection, By Thy Holy Ghost’s protection, Make us Thine eternally.

For among all earthly voices, Thine alone our heart rejoices, Be Thou hence our strength and guide. 2 Lead us through life’s darksome mazes, Lift us o’er the thorny places, Shield us from the parching sun. Grant us strength when faint and weary, Comfort when the way is dreary, Guard us till our race is won. 3 May we follow Thee in meekness, Help us overcome our weakness, Melt our heart with grace and love. Let Thy name be burned within us, So that naught from Thee shall win us Till Thou callest us above. Used With Tune: JOSEPH
