<p class="just">Johnson attended Harvard University, where he graduated in Arts, 1842, and in theology, 1846. In 1853, he formed a Free Church in Lynn, Massachusetts, where he served as pastor until 1870. Though he was never directly connected with a religious denomination, the public associated Johnson with the Unitarians. With <a href = "./hymns/hymns_bio/bio_l_o_longfellow_s.html" >Samuel Longfellow</a>, he co-edited:</p>
