Where there is devotional music, God is always at hand with His gracious presence.

God's gift to his sorrowing creatures is a joy worthy of their destiny.

I worked hard. Anyone who works as hard as I did can achieve the same results.

My masters are strange folk with very little care for music in them.

What I have achieved by industry and practice, anyone else with tolerable natural gift and ability can also achieve.

Where there is devotional music, God is always at hand with His gracious presence.

I have always kept one end in view, namely ... to conduct a well-regulated church music to the honour of God.
