Person Name: Unknown Composer of "MOZART" in The Hymn Book of the Anglican Church of Canada and the United Church of Canada 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.
