| Phoebe Knapp (1839 - 1908)  États-Unis Phoebe Knapp (March 9, 1839 ? July 10, 1908) was a composer of music for hymns and an organist.
Knapp was born in New York, New York. Her parents were Walter C. Palmer and Phoebe Worrall Palmer. She married Joseph Fairfield Knapp, one of the founders and the second president of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, and he had a pipe organ installed in their apartment.
She and her husband were members of the John Street Methodist Episcopal Church in New York City. The hymn writer Fanny Crosby was also a member of that church and a friend of Palmer's.
She wrote over 500 hymn tunes, the most familiar being the tune now called Assurance for Fanny Crosby's lyrics Blessed Assurance. Another hymn by Fanny Crosby for which Knapp wrote the music is 'Nearer the Cross.' Other hymn tunes by Knapp include the tune for 'Jesus Christ is Passing By' by J. Denham Smith, which is called 'Albertson,' and the one for 'My Spirit Soul and Body' by Mary D. James, which is called 'Consecration.'
She also wrote sacred choral and solo works, perhaps the best known of which is the Palm Sunday aria 'Open the Gates of the Temple.'
Knapp died in Poland, Maine.
