  • "Now is our salvation nearer than when we believed" (Rom. 13:11)
    A hymn which encourages us to keep on praising the Lord because our salvation is nearer than when we first believed is "Savior, Listen While We Sing." The text was written by Godfrey Thring, who was born on Mar. 25, 1823, at Alford in Somerset, England, the son of John Gale Dalton Thring, an Anglican minister. His oldest brother was Henry (1818-1907), afterwards Lord Thring, the distinguished Parliamentary counsel (1868-1886), who was made a peer in 1886. Another older brother Edward (1821-1887) was a well known English schoolmaster. Educated at Shrewsbury School, Godfrey graduated in 1845 from Balliol Collge at Oxford, England, and became an Anglican minister in 1846, serving churches at Stratfield-Turgis from 1846 to 1850, and at Strathfieldsaye from 1850 to 1853. In 1858 he moved to Alford-with-Hornblotton near Glastonbury and during his time there he produced a number of hymns. "Savior, Listen While We Sing," originally in eight stanzas, is dated 1862 and was first published in his Hymns Congregational and Others of 1866. His other collections include Hymns and Verses in 1866, Hymns and Sacred Lyrics in 1874, and Hymns and Poems for the Holy Days and the Festivals of the Church which became well known. Thring is perhaps best remembered for some of the extra stanzas which he added to "Crown Him with Many Crowns" by Matthew Bridges.
