While chief pastor at Speyer he was principal compiler of the excellent hymn-book for Rhenish Bavaria (Rhein-Pfalz), published at Speyer, 1859, which, like others of his good works there, was thrown aside to please the Radicals. He is the author of various theological works, poems, &c. His partial version of the Psalms is noted under Psalters, German.
Two have been translated:
"Du selbst, 0 Herr, bist ja mein Hirt und Hütter," Psalms xxiii., and "Wie schon und lieblich istes anzusehen," Psalms cxxxiii., in his Ausgewählte Psalmen David, Erlangen, 1852, pp. 31 and 48. Psalms xxiii. is translation by C. T. Astley, 1860, p. 8; and Psalms cxxxiii. by J. Kelly, 1885, p. 91. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.]
