James McGranahan
James McGranahan was a nineteenth-century American musician and composer, most known for his various hymns. He was born 4 July 1840, in West Fallowfield or Adamsville, Pennsylvania, and died 9 July 1907 in Kinsman, Ohio.〔The New York Times, July 10, 1907 (available online )〕
He composed over 25 hymns. For example, in one work he is listed as the composer of three notable songs: "He Will Hide Me" by Mary Elizabeth Servoss, "Revive Thy Work, O Lord" by Albert Midlane, and "Come" by a "Mrs. James Gibson Johnson";〔Brown, Theron and Butterworth, Hezekiah, ''The Story of the Hymns and Tunes''. New York: American Tract Society, 1906.(at Project Gutenberg )〕 and he composed the music for at least 39 of the 79 hymns in a work co-authored with Ira D. Sankey.〔Ira D. Sankey and James McGranahan, ''The Christian Choir''. London: Morgan & Scott, ()〕 McGranahan composed most of the tunes for the lyrics of Major Daniel Webster Whittle, including EL NATHAN, the tune associated with Whittle's "I Know Whom I Have Believèd" (written 1883).
The music of his hymn "My Redeemer," written for lyrics by P. P. Bliss,〔The tune is often known by the first line in Bliss' lyrics, "I will sing of my Redeemer." See McCann, Forrest M. (1997). ''Hymns and History: An Annotated Survey of Sources''. Abilene, TX: ACU Press. Pp. 154, 359-360. (0-89112-058-0 )〕 is used as the accompaniment for the Latter-day Saints hymn "O My Father."〔See also Calon Lân.〕
In Hawaii, McGranahan is noted for writing the music to the hymn "I Left It All With Jesus," which, when joined to the words "Hawaii Aloha" by the Rev. Lorenzo Lyons (an early missionary to Hawaii) became one of Hawaii's best known and best loved songs. In Hawaii the tune is called Hawaii Aloha and the words were penned by Lorenzo Lyons, a minister. Lyons was known as "Makua Laiana" or simply "Laiana." The song is often sung at the close of public political, spiritual, educational and sporting events.
