Son of Rev. John Gale Dalton Thring and brother of Lord Thring, Godfrey graduated from Balliol College, Oxford, England. He was ordained in the Anglican church, and was given the rectory at Alford-with-Hornblotton, near Glastonbury. Later, he became prebendary at Wells Cathedral. While at Alford-with-Hornblotton, Thring wrote a number of hymn volumes, including:

  • Hymns and Poems for the Holy Days and the Festivals of the Church
  • Hymns and Sacred Lyrics
  • Church of England Hymnbook

His Hymns and Poems for the Holy Days and the Festivals of the Church, became well known. Thring’s brother wrote of this work:

Be sure that no painting, no art work you could have done, could have been so powerful for good…As long as the English language lasts, sundry of your hymns will be read and sung…and many a soul of God’s creatures will thrill at your words. What more can a man want?
