I have been looking around trying to find some information on the composer for this hymn taken from the 1872 Peters' Sodality Hymn Book. All that it indicated in "Arr. from Blumenthal". Its the only occurrence of this name in the hymnal and I looked on the IMSLP and various combinations of internet searches. Anyone know anything about this person?

One of the citations at Hymnary also says it was arranged by Hubert P. Main. Another citation is an arrangement by F. W.Root. And still another arrangement is by J. E.Gould.
