The Rock of Refuge

Author: Martha Shepard Lippincott Hymnal: Young People's Songs of Praise #7 (1902) Topics: Refuge-Rock First Line: Surely, surely, there is safety Lyrics: 1 Surely, surely, there is safety In the shelter of our Lord, He is ready to protect us, When His mercy is implored; Let us look to Him in trouble When upon life’s stormy sea, He will be a place of refuge, Where our souls at rest may be. 2 He will lead us on to heaven If we follow in His way; And will be the Star to guide us To the bright, celestial day; Let us steer life’s vessel ever To the harbor of His grace, So that He at last may bring us To behold Him face to face. 3 He’s a Refuge never failing And a Rock on which to stand; And to us He’s ever reaching With a tender, loving hand; He will keep us safe for ever Sheltered by His boundless love, Till we enter thro’ the portals To the home prepared above. Scripture: Psalm 31:3 Tune Title: [Surely, surely, there is safety]

Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy

1809 - 1847 Person Name: Fr. F. Mendelssohn Topics: Refuge--Rock Composer of "CONSOLATION" in Hallowed Hymns, New and Old Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy (b. Hamburg, Germany, 1809; d. Leipzig, Germany, 1847) was the son of banker Abraham Mendelssohn and the grandson of philosopher Moses Mendelssohn. His Jewish family became Christian and took the Bartholdy name (name of the estate of Mendelssohn's uncle) when baptized into the Lutheran church. The children all received an excellent musical education. Mendelssohn had his first public performance at the age of nine and by the age of sixteen had written several symphonies. Profoundly influenced by J. S. Bach's music, he conducted a performance of the St. Matthew Passion in 1829 (at age 20!) – the first performance since Bach's death, thus reintroducing Bach to the world. Mendelssohn organized the Domchor in Berlin and founded the Leipzig Conservatory of Music in 1843. Traveling widely, he not only became familiar with various styles of music but also became well known himself in countries other than Germany, especially in England. He left a rich treasury of music: organ and piano works, overtures and incidental music, oratorios (including St. Paul or Elijah and choral works, and symphonies. He harmonized a number of hymn tunes himself, but hymnbook editors also arranged some of his other tunes into hymn tunes. Bert Polman
