Burde, Samuel Gottlieb

1753-1832
​
Burde was born December 7, 1753, at Breslau, Germany, and later became a civil servant.  He studied law at the University of Halle.  He became tutor and superintendent of a charity school at Breslau.  Burde later became private secretary to the Cabinet Minister von Haugwitz.  He held many other positions in government and private offices.  However, his work as a hymn writer was reckoned to be equal or superior to the hymn writers of his day.  Of the roughly 100 hymns he wrote, five have been translated into English.  He died April 28, 1831, which was about the time the Froehlich movement was beginning in Switzerland.

Special thanks to the Apostolic Christians who diligently labored to keep their rich musical heritage alive when most other denominations forsook it in the challenging battle of changing cultures.
​
Thanks be to those souls who labored to write and compose this treasure of praise, many now only known to GOD!

Above all, thanks, praise, and glory be to GOD!
