According to John Julian, the two hymns shown be­low, by one J. Young, ap­peared in the Amer­i­can Bap­tist Psalm­ist of 1843. In The Evangelical Hymn­al (Har­ris­burg, Penn­syl­van­ia: The Evan­gel­i­cal Pub­lish­ing House, 1921), the au­thor of “O for a Shout of Joy” is al­so shown as J. Young, which the in­dex ex­pands to “Rev. Jacob Young (1829-1895).” If cor­rect, Young was on­ly 14 years old when the Psalm­ist was pub­lished.
