Author of "High Word of God" in The Cyber Hymnal 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.

Charles Bigg

1840 - 1908 Translator (from Latin) of "High Word of God" in The Cyber Hymnal Bigg, Charles, D.D., son of Thomas Bigg, was born in 1840 at Higher Broughton, Manchester, and was educated at Manchester Grammar School and at Corpus Christi College, Oxford (Scholar 1859; B.A. 1862).
