Author of "主耶穌真奇妙，主耶穌真奇妙，
(Isn't He Wonderful)" in 生命聖詩 - Hymns of Life, 1986 In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
