Charles Coffin

1676 - 1749 Person Name: Charles Coffin, 1676-1749 Topics: Advent 3, Year B; Advent 3, Year C Author of "On Jordan's Bank" in Worship (3rd ed.) Coffin, Charles, born at Buzaney (Ardennes) in 1676, died 1749, was principal of the college at Beauvais, 1712 (succeeding the historian Rollin), and rector of the University of Paris, 1718. He published in 1727 some, of his Latin poems, for which he was already noted, and in 1736 the bulk of his hymns appeared in the Paris Breviary of that year. In the same year he published them as Hymni Sacri Auctore Carolo Coffin, and in 1755 a complete ed. of his Works was issued in 2 vols. To his Hymni Sacri is prefixed an interesting preface. The whole plan of his hymns, and of the Paris Breviary which he so largely influenced, comes out in his words. "In his porro scribendis Hymnis non tam poetico indulgendunv spiritui, quam nitoro et pietate consulendum esse existimavi. Pleraque igitur, argumentis convenientia e purissiinis Scripturae Sacrae fontibus deprompsi quac idoneis Ecclesiae cantui numeris alligarem." His hymns are described by a French critic as having less brilliancy than those of Santüil (q.v.), but more simplicity and unction. They number 100 in the edition of 1736. Translated into English by J. Chandler, I. Williams and others, are noted under their respective Latin first lines. [William T. Brooke] -- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907)

Christian A. Bernstein

1672 - 1712 Person Name: Krist. Bernstein Topics: Tilføiede Salmer; Added Hymns; Andre Søndag I Advent Til Aftengudstjeneste; Second Sunday in Advent; Femte Søndag efter Hellig 3 Kongers Dag Til Aftengudstjeneste - Til Sekund Tekstrækkes Epistel; Fifth Sunday after Epiphany; Skjærtorsdag Til Aftengudstjeneste - Til Tredje Tekstrækkes Lektie; Maundy Thursday; Femte Søndag efter Paaske Til Høimesse -Til Sekund Tekstrækkes Evangelium; Fifth Sunday after Easter; Andre Pinsedag Til Aftengudstjeneste - Til Sekund Tekstrækkes Epistel; Pentecost; Syttende Søndag efter Trefoldiheds Fest Til Aftengudstjeneste; Seventeenth Sunday after Trinity Sunday; Tjue sekund Søndag efter Trefoldiheds Fest Til Høimesse -Til Sekund Tekstrækkes Evangelium; Twenty second Sunday after Trinity Sunday; Broderkjærlighed; Brotherly Love; Helliges Samfund; Holy Society; Heiliggjørelse; Sanctification Author of "I Herrens Udvalgte, som Hellighed øve" in Salmebog for Lutherske Kristne i Amerika Bernstein, Christian Andreas, was born at Domnitz, near Halle, where his father, Daniel Bernstein, was pastor. After completing his studies at Halle, he was appointed, in 1695, by A. H. Francke, a tutor in the Padagogium there; was then ordained as assistant to his father (probably at the end of 1696); and died at Domnitz, Oct. 18,1699 (Koch, iv. 365, Allg. Deutsche Biographie ii. 484). From extracts from the Kirchenbuch of Domnitz, kindly sent by Pastor Tauer, it appears that Bernstein was baptized there, July 12, 1672, and thus was probably born July 9. He signed the book as assistant to his father on March 5, 1697. The funeral sermon, Oct. 20, 1699, was preached at his request by Francke, from Isaiah lxi. The statement by his father (who survived till Feb. 27, 1712), that Christian died at the age of 27 years, 3 months, and 2 days, and in the 3rd month and 2nd day of his age, and 3rd year, 14th week of his ministry, seems hardly reconcilable with the other facts. In Freylinghausen's Gesang-Buch., 1704-5, six of his hymns were included, four of which have been translated into English:— i. Ihr Kinder des Höchsten! wie steht's urn die Liebe. [Brotherly Love.] 1704, as above, No. 386, in 9 stanzas. Previously in G. Arnold's Göttliche Sophia, Leipzig, 1700, pt. ii. p. 309, as No. i. of the "Some hitherto unknown hymns." Translated as:—" We in one covenant are joined," of stanza v. by J. Swertner, as No. 384 in the Moravian Hymn Book, 1789. ii. Mein Vater! zeuge mich, dein Kind, nach deinem Bilde. [Names and Offices of Christ.] 1704, as above, No. 62, in 14 stanzas. The translations are:— (1) "My Father! form Thy Child according to Thine Image," by J. C. Jacobi, 1722, p. 125 (1732, p. 12). (2) "Father, make me Thy child," No. 546 in pt. i. of the Moravian Hymn Book, 1754. iii. Schönster aller Schönen. [Love to Christ.] First published in the Geistreiches Gesang-Buch, Halle, 1697, p. 246, in 8 stanzas. Translated as:—"Fairest of all beauties," No. 681 in pt. i. of the Moravian Hymn Book, 1754. iv. Zuletzt gents wohl dem der gerecht auf Erden. [Cross & Consolation.] 1704, as above, No. 440, in 7 stanzas. The translations are:— "At last he's well, who thro' the Blood of Jesus" No. 693, in pt. 1 of the Moravian Hymn Book, 1754. Altered 1789, and changed in metre, 1801, beginning "At last he's blest." (2) "At last all shall be well with those, His own," by Miss Borthwick, in Hymns from the Land of Luther, 1858 (1862, p. 225; 1884, p. 172). [Rev. James Mearns, M. A.] -- John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907) ========================= Bernstein, Christian Andreas, p. 135, ii. In Spurgeon's Our Own Hymn Book, and others, "O patient, spotless One" is an altered form of a part of the Moravian Hymn Book translation of "Mein Vater," noted on p. 135, ii. (2). Another cento beginning with the same first line is in the Lady Huntingdon Hymn Book, 1764, and later editions. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)
