Come to the ark, come to the ark

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #840 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Come to the ark, come to the ark; To Jesus come away: The pestilence walks forth by night, The arrows fly by day. 2 Come to the ark: the waters rise, The seas their billows rear; While darkness gathers o'er the skies, Behold a refuge near! 3 Come to the ark, all, all that weep Beneath the sense of sin: Without, deep calleth unto deep, But all is peace within. 4 Come to the ark, ere yet the flood Your lingering steps oppose; Come, for the door which open stood Is now about to close.

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Come to the ark, come to the ark" in Songs for the Service of Prayer 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.
