A Humn 3s Burn - bPc * " V w ** a** } BY~ CLINT A BONNER ’ \i *Y? vr ( Work For The Night Is Coming A composer raises the ire of a poet Lowell Mason was past three score and ten. According to the Scriptures, he was running on borrowed time. Maybe that's why the noted com poser was pushing hard to wind up a series of music books titled ’The Song Garden,” prepared especial ly. he said in the preface, "for schools and fam ilies." ® Before the days of Mason, the ability to play an instrument, or to sing by note was for the few who could afford private training. Churchgoers, for the most part, depended on songleaders to set the tune and intermittently read lines of a hymn. But, after 40 years of concerted effort, Lowell Mason had changed all that Besides writing many a noble tune, he kept a dozen choirs going at one time, put mu sic in public schools of Boston, helped his pupU. William Bradbury, do the same in New York, and organized rural "singing-schools” from Boston to Savannah where he once clerked in a bank. “Nearer, My God. To Thee," “My Faith Looks Up To Thee” and many another great hymn was bom when Lowell Mason recognized possibilities In a piece of poetry and set it to music. While searching for new material for his song books “for schools and families," Mason was attracted by a poem In a lithe volume titled "Leaves from the Backwoods." The author was an English girl named Annie Louise Walker. Miss Walker nad written the Work, for the night is coming. Work thro’ the morning hours; Work while the dew is sparkling. Work 'mid springing flowers; Work when the day grows brighter. Work In the glowing sun; Work, for the night is coming. When man's work' is done. , Work, for the night is coming. Work thro' the sunny noon; Fill brightest hours with labor. Rest comes sure and soon. poem after reading in St. John (9:4> “The night cotneth. when no man can work," w^hlle visiting her railroad engineer brothers at Sarnia. Canada, in 1854 Now K was 1864. Ann* Walker had gone back to England and married wealthy Merchant Harry CoghiU. Mason wrote Mrs. Coghlll that her poem had possibilities as a song if one syllable were dropped from the fourth line in.each tot the three stanzas—for example. “Rest cometh sure and soon" should read, "Rest comes sure and'soon.” "I am utterly unable to see what ed vantage there can be In any alteration—" Mrs. CoghiU indignantly replied, adding that she could not "in any way agree to what I extremely dislike.” Lowell Mason dropped the syllables. He set the poem to music. He published it In the second book of his “The Song Garden" aeries. Eight years later. In 1872, at even four acore years, the night came when “the dean of American hymn-tune composers" worked no more. Annie L. Coghlll wrote six novels and a volume of verse and. became noted aa a critic and “reviewer of books" before she died at Bath, England, in 1907. But her fame Ilea today la a simple poem she wrote when she was 18 years old—a poem that might have been forgotten had not Lowell Mason struck out three syllables and set to musip: Give every dying minute — Something to keep ih store; 'Work, for the nig^t is coming, When mon works no more. Work, for the night is coming. Under the sunset skies; While their bright tints ore glowing, Work, for doylight flies; • f Work till the lost beom fodeth, Fodeth to shine no more. Work while the night is dorkening, When man's work is o'er. LARGE TRAYS KING SIZE! Hjme Rights Reserved to Limit QuantitiM? , Libby's Sliced PINEAPPLE ...
