Singing Songs of Expectation

Author: Bernard Severin Ingeman, 1798-1862; Sabin Baring-Gould, 1834-1924 Hymnal: RitualSong #780 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Singing songs of expectation, Onward goes the pilgrim band, Through the night of doubt and sorrow, Marching to the promised land. Clear before us through the darkness Gleams and burns the guiding light: Trusting God we march together Stepping fearless through the night. 2 One the light of God's own presence, O'er his ransomed people shed, Chasing far the gloom and terror, Bright'ning all the path we tread: One the object of our journey, One the faith which never tires, One the earnest looking forward, One the hope our God inspires. 3 One the strain the lips of thousands Lift as from the heart of one; One the conflict, one the peril, One the march in God begun: One the gladness of rejoicing On the far eternal shore, Where the one almighty Father Reigns in love for evermore.

Marty Haugen

b. 1950 Person Name: Marty Haugen, b. 1950 Arranger of "HOLY MANNA" in RitualSong Marty Haugen (b. 1950), is a prolific liturgical composer with many songs included in hymnals across the liturgical spectrum of North American hymnals and beyond, with many songs translated into different languages. He was raised in the American Lutheran Church, received a BA in psychology from Luther College, yet found his first position as a church musician in a Roman Catholic parish at a time when the Roman Catholic Church was undergoing profound liturgical and musical changes after Vatican II. Finding a vocation in that parish to provide accessible songs for worship, he continued to compose and to study, receiving an MA in pastoral studies at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul Minnesota. A number of liturgical settings were prepared for the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and more than 400 of his compositions are available from several publishers, especially GIA Publications, who also produced some 30 recordings of his songs. He is composer-in-residence at Mayflower Community Congregational Church in Minneapolis and continues to compose and travel to speak and teach at worship events around the world. Emily Brink
