Program Notes:
Francis Ridley Havergal (1836-1879) was inspired by the story of God’s calling to Samuel as recorded in 1 Samuel 3 to write the text of this hymn. It has been long associated with the hymn tune “Ottawa” by Dr. Lowell Mason (1792- 1872). Havergal’s text challenges one to listen for God’s voice and to respond with obedience, as seen in this verse:
Master, speak: and make me ready,
When Thy voice is truly heard,
With obedience glad and steady
Still to follow every word.
I am listening, Lord, for Thee;
Master, speak: O speak to me!
