Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #276 (1886) Lyrics: 1 If 'tis sweet to mingle where Christians meet for social prayer, If 'tis sweet with them to raise Songs of holy joy and praise, O, how sweet that state must be, Where they meet eternally! 2 Saviour, may these meetings prove Preparations from above; As we leave this sacred place, May we go from grace to grace, Till we each, in his degree, Fit for endless glory be.

Anonymous

Person Name: Anon. Author of "If 'tis sweet to mingle where" in The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book 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.

If 'tis sweet to mingle where. Prayer Meeting. 4. Lord! there is a throne of grace. Prayer. 5. Lord! to Thy bounteous care we owe. Harvest.

The hymn A throne of grace! then let us go" (The Throne of Grace), which is found in several American hymnbooks, is usually attributed to this author, but we have failed to trace it in any of his works. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)
