Lift up your hearts, believers!

Author: Unknown Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #446 (2005) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 Lift up your hearts, believers! This is the holy day when Jesus, our Redeemer, completes salvation's way. The forty days are over, and clouds shine high and bright as Christ, the overcomer, is lifted from our sight. 2 Lift up your hearts, believers! Ye gates, lift up your heads! Though minds be full of wonder, though souls be filled with dread. The Spirit has been promised, and, though we are alone, we wait until the moment when fire and wind are known. 3 Lift up your hearts believers! And do not be downcast, for Jesus, our Redeemer, receives the crown at last. The thorns of crucifixion are changed to stars of light, and Christ, the Lord of glory, is named as God's delight. 4 Lift up your hearts, believers! This is the holy day when Jesus, our Redeemer, completes salvation's way. Topics: Christ Risen Ascension; Christian Year Ascension Scripture: Acts 1:1-11 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. THEODULPH

Anonymous

Person Name: Unknown Author of "Lift up your hearts, believers!" in Church Hymnary (4th ed.) 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.
