He was influenced by Christian Thomasius and the pietist August Hermann Francke. He became a professor of theology at Halle in 1709, and opposed the philosophy of Christian Wolff.[2] He died in Halle on 7 May 1744. Lange wrote the hymn O God, what offering shall I give?, translated into English by John Wesley in 1739.[3] Lange's son, Samuel Gotthold Lange, was a noted poet.
