1 Blessed Savior, quickly come,
Gather Thine own Israel home;
Brought in grace to their own land,
Planted—by Thy mighty hand,
Then by Israel will be seen
What to them their God hath been;
Naught His promise can remove,
Naught can change His faithful love.

2 Countless years may roll away,
Yet His word can ne’er decay;
Every promise He has giv’n
Stands more sure than earth or Heav’n;
He His love on Abr’am set,
He His word can ne’er forget,
Soon shall Abr’am’s race, restored,
Prove how faithful is the Lord.

3 Then by foes no more oppressed,
Israel shall forever rest;
Then all war and strife shall cease,
Nations know the joy of peace;
Israel’s sway shall Gentiles own,
While the Lord on Zion’s throne
O’er His people, blessed again,
Shall Himself forever reign.

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. Go to person page >
