Among other things, he wrote the words to Edward Elgar's Coronation Ode and the words to the patriotic song "Land of Hope and Glory" (1902). People really liked his poems, articles, and reviews of other writers' work. He was also known for writing ghost stories. Bernard Benson was born on April 24, 1862, at Wellington College in Berkshire.

His mother, Mary Sidgwick Benson, was related to the scientist Henry Sidgwick. Edward Frederic Benson, who is best known for his Mapp and Lucia books, and Robert Hugh Benson, who was a priest in the Church of England before becoming a Roman Catholic and wrote many famous books, were also brothers of Benson. Margaret Benson, their sister, was an artist, an author, and a self-taught Egyptologist.
