History of Hymns: "Take Time to Be Holy"
"Take Time to Be Holy"
William D. Longstaff
The United Methodist Hymnal, No. 395
C. Michael Hawn |
Take time to be holy,
speak oft with thy Lord;
abide in him always,
and feed on his word.
Make friends of God’s children,
help those who are weak,
forgetting in nothing
his blessing to seek.
This beloved devotional hymn comes to us from British layman William Dunn Longstaff (1822-1894).

Since his father was a wealthy ship owner, Longstaff was a person of independent financial means. Due to his generous philanthropy, he was influential in evangelical circles. The Rev. Carlton Young, editor of The United Methodist Hymnal, notes that he followed his friend and persuasive Welsh preacher Arthur A.
Rees when he left the Anglican priesthood in 1842 after disagreements with his rector and bishop. As a result, Rees established the Bethesda Free Chapel in Sunderland, where Longstaff served as his church treasurer.
