Each From Age to Age Proclaiming |
God Hath Spoken by His Prophets was written by the Anglican clergyman and hymn writer, George W. Briggs (1875-1959). It was first published in 1953 as part of his collection: Ten New Hymns from the Bible. It is often sung to the tune, Hymn to Joy (see 2nd video) from the 9th Symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827). Shown in the 1st video is a popular alternative melody, Rex Gloriae by Henry T. Smart (1813-1879). In the Divine Office, God Hath Spoken by His Prophets is used with the Office of Readings.
