Annie Matheson

1853 - 1924 Hymnal Title: Pilgrim Songs (Number Two) Author of "When thro' life's dewy fields we go" in Pilgrim Songs (Number Two) Matheson, Annie, eldest daughter of Rev. James Matheson, Congregational Minister, of Nottingham, was born at Blackheath, March, 1853, and resided at Notting Hill, London. She died in 1924. At an early age she showed considerable literary ability, her first hymn, "Jesus, the children are calling," being composed when she was only 13 years old. This hymn, attracting the attention of Dr. George MacDonald, was introduced by him to the notice of the editor of Good Words, who inserted it in that magazine, as a "Hymn by a Child." In 1869 appeared "I am weak and weary, Lord," and from that time Miss Matheson was a frequent contributor to Good Words, Macmillan, The Spectator, St. Nicholas, and other magazines, both English and American. Her illustrated book for children, Margaret's Year Book, containing twelve poems from her pen, was published in 1887. The following are the best known of Miss Matheson's hymns:— 1. Dear Master, what can children do? Children as Workers for Christ. 2. How shall we worship Thee, O Lord? Divine Worship. 3. I am weak and weary, Lord. Divine Strength desired. 4. Jesus, the children are calling. Children's Prayer to Christ. 5. Lord, when we have not any light. Evening. 6. O little birds, that all day long. God's Love to all Creatures. 7. The little snowdrops rise. Easter. 8. When through life's dewy fields we go. Comfort in God's Presence. Of these hymns, Nos, 5, 6, and 7 were written for W. E. Stevenson's School Hymnal, 1880; and Nos. 1 and 2 for a Harvest Festival about 1882. Miss Matheson's hymns are characterised by a pleasing combination of simplicity and refinement, both of thought and expression. [Rev. W. R. Stevenson, M.A.] -- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907) =================== Matheson, Annie, p. 719, ii. She wrote two hymns in 1905 for the Sunday School Hymnary, 1905:— 1. What is the name of the Lord God Almighty? [God is Love.] 1905, No. 407. The original form was partly rewritten in accordance with suggestions made by the editor. 2. When there is peace, where praise hath been. [Evening.] 1905, No. 157. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.] --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, New Supplement (1907)

It was originally purposed that he should follow the medical profession, but, abandoning it for the ministry, he took Holy Orders in 1848. In 1854 he became vicar of Lea Marston, Warwickshire; and in 1870 incumbent of the Episcopal Church of St. Andrews, Scotland. He was also preferred to a prebendaryship in St. Ninian's Cathedral, Perth, in 1880. He is the author of several manuals of prayers, published by the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge and other prose works, and also of:— (1) Hymns for Churchmen, 1854; (2) Counsels of a Godfather, 1861; (3) Hymns for the Children of the Church, 1862; (4) Germs of Thought on the Sunday Services, 1864; (5) Through the Clouds; Thoughts in Plain Verse, 1866. From those works and other sources the following hymns have come into common use:— 1. As calmly in the glowing west. Evening. 2. Come, our Father's voice is calling. Confirmation.

Lo, like a bride, in pure array. Septuagesima. 6. No sign we ask from heaven above. After Holy Baptism. Published in his Hymns for Churchmen, 1854, in 4 stanzas of 6 lines. It has passed into several collections, includ¬ing the S. P. C. K. Church Hymns, 1871, Thring's Collection, 1882, &c. 7. Now, eternal Father, bless. Holy Baptism. In his Hymns for the Children of the Church, 1862, in 3 stanzas of 6 lines, and Mrs. Brock's Children's Hymn Book, 1881. In the latter it is attributed to Bishop Maclagan in error. 8. 0 happy Christian children. Divine Protection. From his Hymns for the Children of the Church, 1862, into Mrs. Brock's Children's Hymn Book, 1881, &c. 9. 0 Jesu, ever present. The Good Shepherd. Published in his Germs of Thought, 1864; the S. P.C.

Litany to the Saviour. Published in his Through the Clouds, &c, 1866, in 10 stanzas of 8 lines, with the note :—"Those words were written for the music of a Roman Litany 'Ave Stella Maria.'" This Litany is in extensive use. 13. Who is this? the long expected. Advent. In addition to these, several of Mr. Tuttiett's hymns are annotated under their respective first lines, the most popular of which are, "Father, let me dedicate"; "Go forward, Christian soldier"; and "0 quickly come, dread Judge of all." Mr. Tuttiett's hymns are characterised by smoothness of rhythm, directness of aim, simplicity of language, and deep earnestness. Those for special services and seasons are of great merit. He died May 21, 1897. -- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907) ================== Tuttiett, L., p. 1188, ii. He was born at Colyton, not Cloyton, Devonshire, in 1825. His hymns "As now Thy children lowly kneel (For the Young), and "Give light. O Lord, that we may learn" (The Light of Life) are in Hymns Ancient & Modern, 1904. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, New Supplement (1907) ===================== See also in: Hymn Writers of the Church
