This is My Fathers World is a well-known Christian hymn written by Maltbie Davenport Babcock, a minister from New York. The piece was published after his death in 1901 at age 42. The poem was set to music in 1915 by Franklin L. Sheppard, a close friend of Babcock, who apparently did not want to call attention to himself and signed using his initials rearranged as S.F.L. Most sources state that Sheppard adapted the music from a traditional English melody that he learned from his mother as a child.
