Hymnal: The Crowning Day #12 (1894) Refrain First Line: Do they ever, do they ever Lyrics: 1 Do they pray for me at home? Do they ever pray for me, When I ride the dark sea foam, When I cross the stormy sea? Oh, how oft in foreign lands, As I see the bended knee, Comes the thought at twilight hour, Do they ever pray for me? Refrain: Do they ever, do they ever, Do they ever pray for me at home? Do they ever, do they ever, Do they ever pray for me at home? 2 Do they pray for me at home, When the summer birds appear? Do they pray for me the while, That my path may be less drear? At the home of early youth, Do they place the vacant chair, Where my heart so oft returns, To the lov’d ones gather’d there? [Refrain] 3 Do they pray for me at home, When the winds of winter blow? Do they pray for me with love, As they watch the winter’s snow? In the season’s chilly cold, Are their hearts for me still warm? As I cherish’d as of old, Through the beating of the storm? [Refrain] Tune Title: [Do they pray for me at home]

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Do They Pray for Me at Home?" in Happy Voices No. 8 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.
