423 Father, We Thank Thee for the Night
Rebecca J. Weston, c. 1890
A morning prayer. The words were written by Rebecca J. Weston, about 1890, but no information concerning her has been traced. This seems to be her only hymn. It appeared in a music-book, The Tonic Sol-fa Course, published by the Oliver Ditson Company. The editor of that book was the Rev. D. Batchellor, who composed the tune. The hymn was included in Songs of Praise, London, 1933.
