Thomas Campbell

Thomas Campbell (fl. 1825) is the composer of the hymn tune "Sagina." Little biographical information is available regarding the composer who wrote this enduring melody, and he is distinct from other notable historical figures who shared his name. Campbell's tune "Sagina" was published in 1825 in a collection of twenty-three hymn tunes titled *The Bouquet*. Each of the twenty-three tunes in the collection was given a horticultural name. The tune "Sagina" is almost universally associated with the hymn "And Can It Be That I Should Gain" by Charles Wesley.
