• The sequence of Protestant versions may be interrupted here to record the Catholic one of J. R. Beste ("Hasten, ye faithful, glad, joyful and holy") in his "Church Hymns," 1849. In his "Annus Sanctus," Mr, Orby Shipley credits it to this volume and year, but adds, "J. Richard Beste, 1839," and thus seems to attribute its composition to that year.
