Bob Chilcott<\/p>\n “Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart, Be thou my wisdom, be thou my true word; Be thou and thou only the first in my heart; ________________<\/p>\n Hymns<\/strong><\/p>\n The King of love my shepherd is<\/em><\/strong><\/a> (ST COLUMBA) was written by Sir Henry Williams Baker (1821\u20131877). It is notable for its skillful meter, and its well-managed rhyme scheme of single and double rhymes, which control and shape the emotion very beautifully. Baker gave an Anglican slant to Psalm 23, interpreting it as a psalm of love and care, but stressing these qualities as evidenced in the Eucharist. The spread table of verse 5 becomes the altar on which the elements are displayed, and the delight comes as the believer takes the \u2018pure chalice\u2019; the unction, or anointing (from 1 John 2: 27), while bestowing grace in a spiritual sense, also has suggestions of a rite. This verse spreads its meaning through the whole hymn, allowing the words of Psalm 23 to acquire an extra significance: so that the last verse suggests that the length of days of a person\u2019s life can be spent, figuratively, \u2018within thy house for ever\u2019, in the service and under the influence of the church, and then later in heaven. The singer can reflect back, and conclude that the first verses suggest the ransomed soul, sought out in love and rescued from sin (Baker\u2019s version of \u2018he restoreth my soul\u2019). The beautiful use of the shepherd metaphor in verse 3, as the shepherd carries the lamb gently on his shoulder, is an illustration of the tenderness of Baker\u2019s work: these lines were the last words spoken by Baker on his deathbed. ST COLUMBA is a folk tune adapted for this hymn by Ralph Vaughan Williams.<\/p>\n Jesus son of Mary\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>was written by Edmund Stuart Palmer (1856\u20131931) in Swahili as\u00a0\u2018Yesu Bin Mariamu\u2019<\/em> sometime before 1901, for the Requiem of a colleague. Palmer was a doctor and Anglican cleric who preached and practiced medicine in Zanzibar and East Africa. Here is the tune we will use: ADORO DEVOTE<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\nBe all else but naught to me, save that thou art;
\nBe thou my best thought in the day and the night,
\nBoth waking and sleeping, thy presence my light.<\/p>\n
\nBe thou ever with me, and I with thee, Lord;
\nBe thou my great Father, and I thy true son;
\nBe thou in me dwelling, and I with thee one.<\/p>\n
\nO Sovereign of heaven, my treasure thou art;
\nGreat heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
\nStill be thou my vision, O Ruler of all.”<\/p>\n
