Hayward. It is to be regretted that nothing is known of the author of the beautiful hymn beginning "Welcome, delightful morn," except that his name is given as "Hayward" is Dobell's New Selection of Evangelical Hymns, published in 1806. It is possible, but not probable, that some facts may yet come to light bearing upon the authorship of this hymn, now more than a century old.
