In the silence of that night so bright,
Came the song of angels from the height;
Come, O shepherds, rise and follow
To the stall where Jesus lies
And greet you there your Lord.

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 >
