[Refrain] 3 I have a home, forever free From toil, and care, and misery, Where stormy seas can never roll, Where bliss eternal crowns the soul. [Refrain] 4 I have a home—how sweet to know ’Tis well secured from every foe— Where peace and joy do reign supreme, Where love shall be my only theme.

Composer of "[I have a home prepar'd for me]" in Songs of the Evening Light 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.
