Beyond composing, he served as a professor of rhetoric and later chancellor at his alma mater, and from 1868 edited more than 20 widely beloved hymnals for Biglow and Main, the leading gospel music publisher of his day.Ranked alongside W. H. Doane and Ira D. Sankey, Lowry’s contributions helped establish a musical tradition that endures in Christian worship today.
