His Yoke is Easy

Author: Arranged Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #10 (1904) First Line: The Lord my portion shall prepare Refrain First Line: His yoke is easy and his burden could not lighter be Lyrics: 1 The Lord my portion shall prepare, No want I'll know; He leads me on thro' pastures green Where waters flow. His presence all my wants supply, My ways attend, And from my foes, Who oppose, Will defend. Chorus: His yoke is easy and his burden could not lighter be; I'll trust him ever, He faileth never, Nor shall I fear. The valley of the shadow shall no terrors have for me; His rod and staff shall be my stay, He will be near! 2 To fertile vales and mountains fair Or dewy meads My ofttimes wearied, falling steps He surely leads. His mercies compass me about, Thro' sorrow's vale; His hand I see Guiding me, Nor can fail. [Chorus] 3 Tho' thro' the valley I may go, I'll fear no ill; My steadfast heart shall have no fear, He's with me still! His rod and staff shall give me aid Thro' sorrow's night, Till night is gone, Shall lead on To the light. [Chorus] Tune Title: [The Lord my portion shall prepare]

Person Name: Arranged Author of "His Yoke is Easy" in The Voice of Praise 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.

C. Austin Miles

1868 - 1946 Composer of "[The Lord my portion shall prepare]" in The Voice of Praise Charles Austin Miles USA 1868-1946. Born at Lakehurst, NJ, he attended the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and the University of PA. He became a pharmacist. He married Bertha H Haagen, and they had two sons: Charles and Russell. In 1892 he abandoned his pharmacy career and began writing gospel songs. At first he furnished compositions to the Hall-Mack Publishing Company, but soon became editor and manager, where he worked for 37 years. He felt he was serving God better in the gospel song writing business, than as a pharmacist. He published the following song books: “New songs of the gospel” (1900), “The service of praise” (1900), “The voice of praise” (1904), “The tribute of song” (1904), “New songs of the gospel #2” (1905), “Songs of service” (1910), “Ideal Sunday school hymns” (1912). He wrote and/or composed 400+ hymns. He died in Philadelphia, PA. John Perry
