His hymns were never published by himself, nor in book form by any one. His best known hymn is "Thou, whose almighty word", which is usually sung to the tune "Moscow", based on a melody by Italian violinist, Felice de Giardini, who was resident in Russia's capital.Marriott was a close friend of Sir Walter Scott who spoke of him in the second canto of 'Marmion' as someone with whom he could talk about poetry.
