作詞作品:
All Things Bright and Beautiful
Angels Stand Around Thy Throne, The
Dear Lord, This Thy Servant’s Day
Do No Sinful Action
Christ Has Ascended Up Again
Eternal Gates Lift Up Their Heads, The
(別名:Golden Gates Are Lifted Up, The)
(別名:Golden Gates Lift Up Their Heads, The)
Every Morning the Red Sun
For All Thy Saints, a Noble Throng
Forgive Them, O My Father
Forsaken Once, and Thrice Denied
From Out the Cloud of Amber Light
He Is Coming, He Is Coming
He Is Risen
His Are the Thousand Sparkling Rills
How Good Is the Almighty God
In Nazareth in Olden Times
In the Rich Man’s Garden
It Was Early in the Morning
Jesus Calls Us
O Love Most Patient, Give Me Grace
Once in Bethlehem of Judah
Once in Royal David’s City
Once in the Town of Bethlehem
Pain and Toil Are Over Now
Roseate Hues of Early Dawn, The
Saints of God Are Holy Men, The
Saw You Never, in the Twilight?
So Be It, Lord; the Prayers Are Prayed
Souls in Heathen Darkness Lying
Spirit of God, That Moved of Old
(別名:Thou Power and Peace)
St. Patrick’s Breastplate
Still Bright and Blue Doth Jordan Flow
There Is a Green Hill Far Away
There Is One Way
Up in Heaven
We Are but Little Children Weak
(別名:O Lord, the Holy Innocents)
We Are Little Christian Children
We Were Washed in Holy Water
When Christ Came Down on Earth of Old
(別名:O Son of God, in Glory Crowned)
(別名:When Jesus Came to Earth of Old)
When of Old the Jewish Mothers
When Wounded Sore the Stricken Heart
Within the Churchyard, Side by Side
