Buried in Symbol

Author: Anon. Hymnal: Choice Hymns of the Faith #527 (1944) First Line: Is it Thy will that I should be Lyrics: 1 Is it Thy will that I should be Buried, in symbol, Lord, with Thee; Owning Thee by this solemn sign, Telling the world that I am Thine? 2 Gladly I yield obedience now; In all things to Thy will I’d bow; I’ll follow where my Savior led, And humbly in His footsteps tread. 3 This emblematic, wat’ry grave Shows forth His love—who came to save; And as I enter it, I see The price my Savior paid for me. 4 Forth from Thy burial, Lord, I come, For Thou has triumphed o’er the tomb; Thy resurrection life I share— My portion is no longer here. 5 Oh, may I count myself to be Dead to the sins that wounded Thee, Dead to the pleasures of this earth, Unworthy of my heav’nly birth. 6 Lord Jesus, when I gaze on Thee, And all Thy radiant glory see, That joy will far exceed the shame I bear on earth for Thy loved name.

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Buried in Symbol" in Choice Hymns of the Faith 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.
