Ambrose Lobwasser
1515 - 1585 Person Name: Ambrosius Lobwasser Author of "O höchster Gott, o unser lieber [liebster] Herr" Lobwasser, Ambrosius, son of Fabian Lobwasser, inspector of mines at Schneeberg, Saxony, was born at Schneeberg, April 4, 1515. After studying law at Leipzig (M.A. 1535) he remained there as University tutor until 1550. After acting as travelling tutor, he was appointed in 1557 Rath and Chancellor at Meissen, and in 1562 made a tour in Italy, and received the degree of LL.D. from the University of Bologna. He was finally appointed in 1563 by Duke Albrecht of Prussia as professor of law and assessor at the High Court of Justice at Königsberg. He died at Königsberg Nov. 27, 1585 (Koch, ii. 394-401, &c).
His principal poetical work was his version of the Psalter. One has passed into English in recent times, viz:
Ihr Knecht des Herren all zugleich. [Ps. cxxxiv.] The original is Beza's version of the Psalm, "Or sus, serviteurs de Seigneur," which first appeared in his Trente-quatre pseaumes de David, Geneva, 1551. Lobwasser's version is in his Psalter dess Königlichen Propheten Dauids, Leipzig, 1573 (not paged), in 3 st. of 4 1., entitled “He encourages the people to fulfil their calling diligently, and assures them that God will grant them His grace." Translated as :—
Ye servants of the Lord, who stand. In full, by Miss Winkworth, as No. 88 in her Chorale Book for England, 1863, and set to the original melody of 1551. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.]
