<p class="just">Hawker was educated at Pembroke College, Oxford (B.A. 1828, M.A. 1836). He took Holy Orders in 1829 and became curate at Wellcombe, Devon, and in 1834 vicar of Morwenstow, Cornwall. He published several poetical works, including <em>Ecclesia</em> (1840), in which some of his hymns appeared. Hymns by him were also published in <em>Lyra Messianica</em> (1864).</p>
