Transcription	Let us now Praise famous Men. Anthem, by Dr. S. S. Wesley Commemoration Anthem (A). Anthem (B), another setting to these words (more difficult), by the same Composer. Written expressly for Commemoration, Founder’s Day. Words taken from Ecclesiasticus Ch. xliv. Transcription from printed copy originally published in 1885. Let us now praise famous men, and our fathers that begat us, Let us now praise famous men, Let us now praise famous men, the Lord hath wrought great glory through them, Through them by his great pow’r from the beginning; now praise famous men, famous men…. the Lord hath wrought great glory through them by his great pow’r from the beginning. Such as did bear rule in their kingdoms were renowned for their power, giving counsel by their understanding, and declaring prophecies. Leaders of the people by their counsel and by their knowledge of learning meet for the people; wise and eloquent, eloquent in their instructions….. All these were honour’d in their generations, and were the glory of their times. There be of them that have left a name behind them that their praises might be reported, and some there be which have no memorial, who are perished as though they had never been, and are become as tho’ they had never born; There be of them that have left a name behind them that their praises might be reported, and some there be which have no memorial, who are perished as tho’ they had never been, and are become as tho’ they had never been born. But these were merciful men whose righteousness hath not been forgotten; with their seed shall continually remain a good inheritance, and their children within the covenant. Their seed standeth fast, and their children for their sakes; their seed shall remain forever, their seed shall endure forever, their name shall remain forever, and their glory, and their glory shall not be blotted out; their bodies are buried in peace, but their name liveth evermore; the people will tell of their wisdom, and the congregation will show forth their praise; …. and the congregation will show forth their praise, will show forth their praise, the congregation will show forth their praise, the people will tell of their wisdom, and the congregation will show forth their praise, will show forth their praise.
