Timothy Dudley-Smith

A memorial plaque was unveiled in Norwich Cathedral in late March, in memory of noted evangelical bishop and hymn writer Timothy Dudley-Smith. He died in 2024.

He is best known as a writer of hymns, and the memorial stone being unveiled in Norwich Cathedral bears the line: “Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord.” The unveiling and dedication of the stone was set to take place at the Cathedral’s Evensong on 22 March at 3:30pm. Timothy Dudley-Smith was greatly involved with the Church Pastoral Aid Society (CPAS), Billy Graham’s Mission England (1984) and the Evangelical Alliance from 1987 to 1992. He was Archdeacon of Norwich and Bishop of Thetford.
