His father, Vincent Perronett, was an Anglican priest who worked alongside 9 00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:11.239 John Westley and Charles Westley. Edward was a descendant of a family of French 10 00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:17.719 Huguenots who fled to Switzerland and then to England to escape religious persecution against the 11 00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:26.319 Protestants. In Edward' s time, Methodists were often persecuted. John Westley, 12 00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:30.400 once wrote in his diary that Edward himself was shot down and dumped the 13 00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:37.159 mud and mud in Bolton. After certain altercations with the Westleys, Perronett moved 14 00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:45.719 away from organized methodism and became a minister of an independent congregation. Edward published 15 00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:49.439 three volumes of Christian poems. One of them, and perhaps the best known, 16 00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:56.359 was Darth Gloria to the Lamb King. The melody titled coronation was composed 17 00:01:56.439 --> 00:02:00.359 by Oliver Holden, a composer and compiler of Hymno, who was also marin 18 00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:07.280 a year during the U S War of Independence at ST DEAN As a carpenter, 19 00:02:07.919 --> 00:02:14.000 he helped rebuild Charleston, Massachusetts, organized several music schools, and was 20 00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:19.719 director of the choir of the first Baptist church in Boston. He joined King 21 00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:23.439 Solomon’ s lodge in a thousand seven hundred and ninety- five and was 22 00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:30.000 an active member for ten years. One of the best known stories in connection 23 00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:36.120 with this hymn is that of Rev ps Cut, who was a missionary in 24 00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:42.039 India in 800. Against the advice of his missionary friends, Scott went only 25 00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:46.879 to take the gospel to a remote village where a wild and dangerous tribe lived. 26 00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:53.159 After several days of travel, a group of warriors found him and surrounded 27 00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:59.680 him and pointed spears at his heart, thinking he was going to die in 28 00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:04.599 him. At that time, Scout decided to use his last breaths to glorify 29 00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.879 God and, if possible, touch some of the hearts of his captors, 30 00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:15.560 pull out his violin, close his eyes and begin to touch glory to the 31 00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:21.120 king lamb in the native language of the warriors. He finished the first verse, 32 00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:24.800 then the second, the third and the fourth, and Scott noticed that 33 00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:30.159 he was still alive and standing and everything around him was peace and calm. 34 00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:36.120 When he opened his eyes, he saw all the spears down. The warriors 35 00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:40.439 surrounded him with tears in his eyes. For much of the rest of his 36 00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:49.560 life, Scott shared God' s love with this tribe This hymn was written 37 00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:53.319 by Reverend Edward Perronett in a thousand seven hundred and seventy- nine, who 38 00:03:53.360 --> 00:04:00.479 was also a missionary in India. The music was written by Oliver Holden Stein 39 00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:02.360 and has been translated into almost every language in the world.
