Representative Text

1 May God accept our vow,
Our sacrifice receive,
Our heart's devout request allow,
Our holy wishes give!

2 O Lord, Thy saving grace
We joyfully declare;
Our banner in Thy Name we raise--
"The Lord fulfil our prayer!"

3 Now know we that the Lord
his chosen will defend;
From heaven will strength divine afford,
And will their prayer attend.

Hymnal: according to the use of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America, 1871

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 >
