Patrick Brennan (1877-1951) is identified in Hymnary as the author of the English hymn “Hail, Redeemer, King Divine.” The hymn is the principal text associated with his name in the information provided, and Hymnary records multiple instances of its use in hymnals.

The available information identifies Brennan as the author of “Hail, Redeemer, King Divine,” but provides no further biographical details concerning his education, ministry, occupation, place of birth, or other aspects of his life. For this reason, such details should not be added without reliable supporting evidence.

His best-known contribution to hymnody is therefore “Hail, Redeemer, King Divine,” a hymn that has continued to appear in Christian hymnals. His name is preserved in hymnological records primarily through this contribution.
