Phillips Brooks (1835 - 1893) stands as one of the most distinguished clergymen of the nineteenth century, renowned for his exceptional preaching and deep compassion. Serving as the rector of Trinity Church in Boston for most of his life, he briefly held the position of Episcopal bishop of Massachusetts from 1891 to 1893. Brooks was not only a celebrated preacher but also a devoted patriot, advocating for the North during the American Civil War and boldly opposing slavery. His poignant sermon on the death of Abraham Lincoln captured the essence of both men’s characters. Although he was invited to become the full-time chaplain at Harvard University—where he maintained close ties with faculty and students—he humbly stated that his only ambition is to be a parish priest. Brooks passed away in 1893, just 15 months into his episcopate, leaving a profound impact on Bostons history. His funeral was attended by people from all walks of life, with Harvard students carrying his body in a poignant tribute. A man of considerable physical presence, standing six feet four inches tall, Brooks was deeply respected for his understanding of diverse beliefs and religious traditions. He earned degrees from prestigious institutions, including an STD from Harvard and Columbia, and a Doctor of Divinity from the University of Oxford. He is perhaps best remembered as the lyricist of the beloved carol O Little Town of Bethlehem.
