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.
