His father served with distinction at Guadeloupe in 1815. His grandfather was Sir Robert Baker of Dunstable House, Surrey, and of Nicholashayne, Culmstock, Devon, on whom a baronetcy was conferred in 1796. Sir Henry Williams Baker was born in London on Sunday, 27 May 1821, at the house of his maternal grandfather; and after completing his university education at Trinity College, Cambridge, took his B.A. degree and holy orders in 1844, and proceeded M.A. in 1847. In 1851 he was presented to the vicarage of Monkland near Leominster. On the death of his father, on 2 November 1859, he succeeded him as third baronet. In 1852, while at Monkland, Sir Henry wrote his earliest hymn, Oh, what if we are Christs. Two others, Praise, O praise our Lord and King, and There is a blessed Home, have been referred to 1861 (Selbornes Book of Praise, pp. 176, 207-8, 288-9). Sir Henry Bakers name is chiefly known as the promoter and editor of Hymns Ancient and Modern, first published in 1861. To this collection Baker contributed many original hymns, besides several translations of Latin hymns. In 1868 an Appendix to the collection was issued, and in 1875 the work was thoroughly revised. The hymnal was compiled to meet the wants of churchmen of all schools, but strong objections were raised in many quarters to Sir Henry Bakers own hymn addressed to the Virgin Mary, Shall we not love thee. Mother dear? Sir Henry Baker held the doctrine of the celibacy of the clergy, and at his death the baronetcy devolved on a kinsman. He was the author of Daily Prayers for the Use of those who have to work hard, as well as of a Daily Text-book for the same class, and of some tracts on religious subjects. He died on Monday, 12 February 1877, aged 55, at the vicarage of Monkland, and was buried in the churchyard of the parish. His last words were from his hymn The King of Love My Shepherd Is: "Perverse and foolish oft I stayed / But yet in love He sought me / And on His shonlder gently laid / And home, rejoicing, brought me."
