Information about Cyber Hymnal Website

Born: October 4, 1676, Duchy of Rheim (Ardennes region).

Died: June 20, 1749, Paris, France. Due to his persistence in appealing against the papal Constitution Unigenitus of 1713, the parish rector of Saint-Etienne-du-Mont refused to administer last rites to him, or give him a Christian burial.

In 1712, Coffin became principal of the college at Beauvais, succeeding the historian Rollin. In 1718, Coffin became rector of the University of Paris. In 1727, he published some of his Latin poems. In 1736, the bulk of his hymns appeared in the Paris Breviary and Hymni Sacri Auctore Carolo Coffin. In 1755, a complete, two volume edition of his works was published. He wrote over 100 hymns.
