Josiah Conder

1789–1855


Josiah Conder (1789–1855) was a British writer, editor and hymn-writer.

The poems here are taken from Alfred H. Miles (ed.), The Poets and the Poetry of the Century (London: Hutchinson, 1891–1897), vol. 10, from the Internet Archive scans of that edition. Spelling is that of the anthology; Miles's biographical essay and extracts from longer poems are omitted, and only poems that could be read cleanly from the scan are included.

  1. Though rugged their way
  2. The Lord is King
  3. One Lord, one empire, all secures
  4. O Show Me Not My Saviour Dying
  5. Oh, Give Thanks to Him Who Made
  6. Ride On, Ride on in Majesty
  7. Bound upon th' accursed tree
  8. When our heads are bow'd with woe
  9. From The Martyr of Antioch: Funeral Hymn
  10. Earth to earth and dust to dust,
  11. O'er Judah's land thy rainbow, Lord, shall beam
