Born: January 12, 1797, Prittwell, Essex, England.

Died: March 7, 1874, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Bullock was the Anglican rector of St. Paul’s in Trinity, Newfoundland; rector of St. Luke’s Church, Halifax, Nova Scotia; and—when the church was designated a cathedral by Bishop Herbert Binney in 1864—St. Luke’s first dean. Bullock’s works include:

  • Practical Lectures upon the History of Joseph and His Brethren, 1826
  • Songs of the Church (Halifax, Nova Scotia: 1854)

Bullock’s descendants relate a family story that he was once asked by a parishioner why he had not written a verse of “We Love Thy Place, O God” about the pulpit. He replied:

What would I write?

We love thy pulpit Lord,
For there the word of man
Lulls the worshiper to sleep
As only sermons can.

Hymns:

  1. In Grief and Fear, to Thee, O Lord
  2. We Love Thy Place, O God
