Father, Holy Father
Author: Anon. Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father, Holy Father,
Now the sun has come
Bringing light and glory
From Thy Heav’nly Home.
We Thy little children
To Thy Throne above,
WE would hymn Thy praises,
We would sing Thy love.
2 Hear us, Holy Father,
AS to Thee we pray,
Asking Thee to keep us
Safe from harm today.
As the Saviour Jesus,
When a little child,
Gentle was, and holy,
Pure, and meek, and mild.
3 He shall be our copy;
We will try to be
Patient and obedient,
Loving, king, as He.
So, when night returneth,
Holier may we be,
Kept from sin and sorrow,
All the nearer Thee. Topics: Children's Services Used With Tune: WIGHT

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Father, Holy Father" in Gloria Deo 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.
