Description: It is uncertain whether this service should be attributed to John Hilton the elder (onetime assistant organist at Lincoln Cathedral) or to his son of the same name (c.1599 - 1657), organist at St Margaret's, Westminster. Extant sacred works undoubtedly composed by the latter display a more modern style than is evident here, and in accordance with the balance of probabilities, I have attributed the work to the older man (this accords with current RISM opinion) Posterity has not been kind to the Hilton family; despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, his best-known anthem will be referred to as Farrant's "Lord for thy tender mercy's sake" for as long as pelargoniums are called geraniums.
