1828 - 1897 Person Name: William Conyngham Plunket (1828-1897) Author of "Our Lord Christ hath risen! The tempter is foiled" in Church Hymnary (4th ed.) Plunket, William Conyngham , D.D., 4th Baron Plunket, eldest son of John, 3rd Baron, was born in Dublin, 26 August, 1828; educated at Trinity College, Dublin, where he graduated in 1853; and took Holy Orders in 1857. He was Precentor of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin, from 1869 to 1876, when he was elected Bishop of Meath. In 1884 he was translated to the Archdiocese of Dublin. His hymn “Our Lord Christ hath risen" (Easter), was first published in the Irish Church Hymnal, 1873, in 4 st. of 7 1. It was written for that collection in 1873, to suit the tune "O Ursprung des Lebens," by T. Selle. So far as we are aware this is Lord Plunket's only contribution to hymnody.
