Praise Qod From Whom All Blessings Flow
The most widely sung Christian verse ever written
Colleges In England were filled with roughnecks
and Winchester College was no exception. The
Roman Church and the Church of England were at
such odds that, when the Lord's Prayer was said
at Oxford, the vice chancellor sat down and put on
his hat. But little orphan student Thomas Ken
thought it ought not to be that way. Put through
Winchester by his step-brother-in-law. Ken went
to Oxford for his degree, entered the Anglican
ministry and came back to Winchester as chaplain.
To encourage worship at his alma mater, Chap
lain Keu wrote a book he called “Manual of Pray
ers.” In his manual he admonished the boys to
“be sure and sing early in the morning and in
the night season." That was in 1667, but by 1674
the students were not singing early in the morning
and in the night season, so Ken wrote three hymns
and Inserted copies into each manual His "Morn
ing Hymn" began:
"Awoke, my soul, ond with the sun
Thy doily stop* of duty run;
Shoke off dull sloth, ond eorly rise
To pay thy morning sacrifice."
Thirteen verses followed. The last one read:
*
•
"Praise God from whom oil blessings flow.
Praise Him oil craptures here below;
Praise Him obove, ye angelic host.
Praise Pother, Son and Holy Ghost.*'
Chaplain Ken’s "Evening Hymn" opened:
Glory to Thee, my God, this night
For oil the blessings of the light . . .*
It dosed with the same verse as the Morning
Hymn . . . "Praise God from whom all hiemtnge
flow, etc." And, for those students who might awake
in the night. Chaplain Ken wrote a five-verse "Mid
night Hymn." It also concluded with "Praise God
from whom all blessings flow . . . etc."
There are other doxologies, but it Is claimed
that this verse has been sung more than any other
four lines ever written. The music is a secular tuna
that was first used for Christian worship in 1551
to the singing cl the 134th Psalm. In 1560 it was
sung to the 100th Psalm, and has been known ever
since as “Old Hundred."
The hymn, “Awake My Soul, and with the Sun,"
found in many current hymnals, is a selection of
verses from Thomas Ken's "Morning Hymn.” But
it is the single closing verse of his three hymns
(with only the change of the word "angelic" to
"heavenly") that has carried his name through
the centuries.
„ Hen spent his last 20 years in poverty. When he
died at 74, in 1711, his earthly possessions totaled
ope lute and one wornout horse. Conforming with
his request the six poorest men la the parish
carried his body to the grave. There was no pomp
... no ceremony. He wanted it that way. As the
sun rose, his friends, the poor people, lowered the
casket and sang:
"Praise God from whom oil blessings flow.
Praise Him ell creatures here below;
Probe Him obove, ye angelic host.
Praise Pother Snr 0 nd Holy Ghost."

Responsibility Law
Increasing Cause
Of Losing Licenses
■ ♦
Driving under the influence of
intoxicants, long the leaddng cause
for driver license Aispension in
South Carolina is now being ri
valed by "failure to prove finan
cial responsibility under the state’s
Safety Responsibility Law,” ac
cording to a State Highway De
partment report.
In the past, drunk driving,
which carries mandatory suspen
sion upon conviction, was con
sistently responsible for more
than half of all driver license sus
pensions listed in the monthly re
ports. Failure to prove financial
responsibility usually accounted
for about 30 per cent of the total.
Now, the gaip is gradually closing.
In October, there were 1,416
driving privileges withdrawn, ac
cording to the report. Of that num
ber, 664 were for drunk driving
and 600 came as the result of fail
ure to prove financial responsibil
ity under the state’s Safety Re
sponsibility Law. The report
showed that 105 persons lost their
licenses through reckless driving
(two reckless driving convictions
call for suspension) and 34 per
sons had their licenses suspended
after accumulating 12 demerit
points under the point system law.
ers trhoughout this section. The
farm the past year hatched out
about 200,000 poults, 50,000 less
than the previous year.
On the farm are six full-time
employees. In addition to these
workers there are also others on
six other nearby farms where
turkeys from the Huffman farm
are bred. Less than 25 per cent
are grown out for market, the
remainder are sold a few days
after they are hatched.
Mr. Huffman, a graduate of
Clemson college, started in the
turkey business 15 years ago
with about 1,500 breeders.
