God of God, and Light of Light
Jesus, with Thy Church abide
Author: Thomas Benson Pollock Meter: 7.7.7.6 Appears in 103 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, with Thy Church abide,
Be her Saviour, Lord, and Guide,
While on earth her faith is tried,
We beseech Thee, hear us.
2 May she one in doctrine be,
One in truth and charity,
Winning all to faith in Thee.
We beseech Thee, hear us.
3 May she guide the poor and blind,
Seek the lost until she find,
And the broken-hearted bind.
We beseech Thee, hear us.
4 Save her love from growing cold,
Make her watchmen strong and bold,
Fence her round--Thy peaceful fold.
We beseech Thee, hear us.
5 May her pastors duly feed,
Shepherds of the flock indeed,
Ready at Thy call to lead.
We beseech Thee, hear us.
6 May they live the truths they know,
And a holy pattern show,
As before Thy flock they go.
We beseech Thee, hear us.
7 May the grace of Him Who died,
And the Father's love abide,
And the Spirit ever guide,
We beseech Thee, hear us.
Amen.

William Henry Monk
1823 - 1889 Person Name: William H. Monk Composer of "LITANY" in Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church 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
Author of "God the Father, God the Son" in The Cyber 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.

Thomas Benson Pollock
1836 - 1896 Author of "Jesus, with Thy Church abide" in Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church Pollock, Thomas Benson, M.A., was born in 1836, and graduated at Trinity College, Dublin, B.A. 1859, M.A. 1863, where he also gained the Vice-Chancellor's Prize for English Verse in 1855. Taking Holy Orders in 1861, he was Curate of St. Luke's, Leek, Staffordshire; St. Thomas's, Stamford Hill, London; and St. Alban's, Birmingham. Mr. Pollock is a most successful writer of metrical Litanies. His Metrical Litanies for Special Services and General Use, Mowbray, Oxford, 1870, and other compositions of the same kind contributed subsequently to various collections, have greatly enriched modern hymnbooks. To the 1889 Supplemental Hymns to Hymns Ancient & Modern, Mr. Pollock contributed two hymns, “We are soldiers of Christ, Who is mighty to save" (Soldiers of Christ), and "We have not known Thee as we ought" (Seeking God), but they are by no means equal to his Litanies in beauty and finish.
