Chorus: We'll work till Jesus comes, We'll work till Jesus comes, We'll work till Jesus comes, And we'll be gathered home. 2 Be mine the happier lot to own, We'll be gathered home; A heavenly mansion near the throne, We'll be gathered home.

Person Name: Anon. Author of "We'll work till Jesus comes" 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.
