Representative Text

1 Hail the God of our salvation
Triumph in redeeming love;
Let us with glad exultation
Imitate the blest above.

2 Light of those whose dreary dwelling
Border'd on the shades of death,
He hath by his grace revealing,
Scatter'd all the clouds beneath.

3 Father thou art all compassion,
Pure unbounded love thou art;
Hail the God of our salvation,
Praise him ev'ry thankful heart.

4 Joyfully on earth adore him,
Till in heaven we take our place,
There enrapture'd, fall before him,
Lost in wonder, love and praise.

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 >
