Hymnist?

Is this the same "Duke Wilhelm of Saxony-Weimar" whose hymn text beginning (in an English version attributed to Catherine Winkworth) "Lord Jesus Christ, be with us now", set to Old Hundredth, as hymn #4 in the 1956 North American Hymnal? --Haruo (talk) 14:14, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

To answer my own question, it appears that it is the same guy, and that hymn is a substantial portion of his legacy. ^[1] The attribution of the English version to Miss Winkworth (whose substantially different "Lord Jesus Christ, be present now" translation is well-attested) seems iffier. --Haruo (talk) 14:34, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
