Author: Alfred H. Mumford, 1864-1939 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Welcome among Thy flock of grace With joyful acclamation, Thou, Whom our Shepherd we confess! Come, feed Thy congregation. We own the doctrine of Thy cross To be our sole foundation; Accept from every one of us The deepest adoration. 2 O Thou, the Church’s Head and Lord, Who as a Shepherd leadest Thy flock, and richly with Thy Word And sacrament us feedest, What shall we say? Lost in amaze, Our hearts bow down before Thee; For none sufficiently can praise, Love, honor, or adore Thee. 3 Lord Jesus, for our call of grace, To praise Thy Name in fellowship We humbly meet before Thy face And in Thy presence love-feast keep. Shed in our hearts Thy love abroad, Thy spirit’s unction now impart; Grant we may all, O Lamb of God, In Thee be truly one in heart.

Samuel Sebastian Wesley

1810 - 1876 Person Name: Samuel S. Wesley, 1810-1876 Composer of "AURELIA" in Hymnal and Liturgies of the Moravian Church Samuel Sebastian Wesley (b. London, England, 1810; d. Gloucester, England, 1876) was an English organist and composer. The grandson of Charles Wesley, he was born in London, and sang in the choir of the Chapel Royal as a boy. He learned composition and organ from his father, Samuel, completed a doctorate in music at Oxford, and composed for piano, organ, and choir. He was organist at Hereford Cathedral (1832-1835), Exeter Cathedral (1835-1842), Leeds Parish Church (1842-1849), Winchester Cathedral (1849-1865), and Gloucester Cathedral (1865-1876). Wesley strove to improve the standards of church music and the status of church musicians; his observations and plans for reform were published as A Few Words on Cathedral Music and the Music System of the Church (1849). He was the musical editor of Charles Kemble's A Selection of Psalms and Hymns (1864) and of the Wellburn Appendix of Original Hymns and Tunes (1875) but is best known as the compiler of The European Psalmist (1872), in which some 130 of the 733 hymn tunes were written by him.
