George W. Kitchin, a scholar and clergyman, wrote the original text in 1887 to be included in a festival worship service at Winchester Cathedral. Later in 1916, Michael Newbolt revised the text for publication in a supplement to Hymns Ancient and Modern, England’s most well-known hymnal. With its inclusion in this hymnal, it was set to a new tune composed by Sydney Nicholson who is known for establishing the Royal School of Church Music. Since that time, both text and tune have become inseparably well-loved. Search Committee Prayer Almighty God, we pray for the guidance of your Holy Spirit as we seek a new rector for our church. You know our special needs and the task that lies in our hands. Direct us in our search and give us insight to perceive the leader you would choose for us. And we further pray, O Lord, that in this time of waiting we may all devote ourselves afresh to your service, so that nothing will be lost of the faithful work of the past, but rather that it may be brought to a rich harvest in the years to come. This we ask in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Join us today, January 25th for the 2015 Chili Cook off and Bake off following the 10:30 service in the Undercroft.
