Weaned from this earth I fain would be

Author: Anon. Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Weaned from this earth I fain would be, Of sin, of self, of all but Thee; Reserved for Christ who bled and died, Surrendered to the Crucified. 2 Securely hid from sin and strife, The lust, the pomp, the pride of life; Prepared for heaven; my noblest care To have my conversation there. 3 Nothing save Jesus would I know; My friend, and my companion, thou; Constrain my soul thy sway to own; Self-will, self-righteousness dethrone.

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Weaned from this earth I fain would be" in The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book 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.
