1834 - 1900 Person Name: Uzziah C. Burnap Hymnal Number: 45 Arranger of "ARTHUR'S SEAT" in Singing the New Testament Burnap ran a dry goods business in Brooklyn, though he graduated from the University of Paris with a music degree, and for 37 years played the organ at the Reformed Church in Brooklyn Heights. He was a prolific composer, and helped edit the following:
Hymns of the Church, 1869
Hymns of Prayer and Praise, 1871
Hymns and Songs of Praise, 1874
--The Cyber Hymnal™
There is uncertainty about his middle name. Reynolds and the Library of Congress say it was Christopher. A contemporary obituary relied on by "The Cyber Hymnal™" says it was Cicero. It appears that there was another Uzziah C[icero] Burnap who lived (per LOC) 1794-1854.
