Person Name: Anon. Hymnal Title: A Collection of Hymns, for the use of the United Brethren in Christ Author of "Whom have we, Lord, in heaven, but thee" in A Collection of Hymns, for the use of the United Brethren in Christ In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Harriet Auber
1773 - 1862 Hymnal Title: Calvin Hymnary Project Author of "Whom have we, Lord, in heaven but Thee" Auber, Harriet, daughter of Mr. James Auber, b. in London, Oct. 4, 1773. During the greater part of her quiet and secluded life she resided at Broxbourne and Hoddesdon, Herts, and died at the latter place on the 20th Jan., 1862. Miss Auber wrote devotional and other poetry, but only a portion of the former was published in her Spirit of the Psalms, in 1829. This collection is mainly her work, and from it some useful versions of the Psalms have been taken and included in modern hymn-books, about 20 appearing in Spurgeon's Our Own Hymn Book, 1866. Miss Auber's name is widely known, but it is principally through her exquisite lyric, "Our blest Redeemer, ere He breathed," and the Epiphany hymn, "Bright was the guiding star that led." (For criticism of her work, see English Psalters, §. 17.)
In addition to these and other hymns by Miss Auber, which are annotated under their respective first lines, the following are also in C. V., but principally in America:—
1. Arise, ye people, and adore. Easter.
2. As Thy chosen people, Lord. Ps. lxciii.
3. Can guilty man indeed believe? Ps. xciv.
4. Delightful is the task to sing. Ps. cxlvii.
5. Father of Spirits, Nature's God. Ps. cxxxi.
6. Hail, gracious Source of every good. Ps. Ixv.
7. Hasten, Lord, the glorious time. Ps. lxxii.
8. Jehovah reigns, O earth, rejoice. Ps. xccii.
9. Join, all ye servants of the Lord. H. Scriptures.
10. Jesus, Lord, to Thee we sing. Ps. cx.
11. O all ye lands, rejoice in God. Ps. lxvi.
12. O God our Strength, to Thee the song. Ps. lIxxxi.
13. O praise our great and gracious Lord. Ps. lxxviii.
14. On thy church, O power divine. Ps. lxvii.
15. Sweet is the work, O Lord. Sunday.
16. That Thou, O Lord, art ever nigh. Ps. lxxv.
17. The Lord, Who hath redeemed our souls. Ps. xxxi.
18. When all bespeaks a Father's love. Ps. set.
19. When dangers press and fears invade. Ps. lxii.
20. Who, O Lord, when life is o'er. Ps. xv.
21. Whom have we Lord, in heaven, but Thee. Ps. lxxiii.
22. Wide, ye heavenly gates, unfold. Ascension.
23. With hearts in love abounding. Ps. xlv.
24. With joy we hail the sacred day. Sunday.
25. Vainly through the night the ranger. Ps. cxvii.
All these psalm-versions and hymns are from her Spirit of the Psalms, London, 1829.

Conrad Kocher
1786 - 1872 Hymnal Title: Carmina Sacra Arranger of "WALDRON" in Carmina Sacra Trained as a teacher, Conrad Kocher (b. Ditzingen, Wurttemberg, Germany, 1786; d. Stuttgart, Germany, 1872) moved to St. Petersburg, Russia, to work as a tutor at the age of seventeen. But his love for the music of Haydn and Mozart impelled him to a career in music. He moved back to Germany in 1811, settled in Stuttgart, and remained there for most of his life. The prestigious Cotta music firm published some of his early compositions and sent him to study music in Italy, where he came under the influence of Palestrina's music. In 1821 Kocher founded the School for Sacred Song in Stuttgart, which popularized four-part singing in the churches of that region. He was organist and choir director at the Stiftskirche in Stuttgart from 1827 to 1865. Kocher wrote a treatise on church music, Die Tonkunst in der Kirche (1823), collected a large number of chorales in Zions Harfe (1855), and composed an oratorio, two operas, and some sonatas. William H. Monk created the current form of DIX by revising and shortening Conrad Kocher's chorale melody for “Treuer Heiland, wir sind hier,” found in Kocher's Stimmen aus dem Reiche Gottes (1838).
