We Gather, We Gather
Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 77 hymnals First Line: We gather, we gather, dear Jesus, to bring Lyrics: 1 We gather, we gather, dear Jesus, to bring
The breathings of love 'mid the blossoms of spring;
Our Maker, Redeemer, we gratefully raise
Our hearts and our voices in hymning Thy praise,
Our hearts and our voices in hymning Thy praise.
2 When stooping to earth from the brightness of heav'n,
Thy blood for our ransom so freely was giv'n,
Thou deignedst to listen while children ador'd,
With joyful Hosannas, the blest of the Lord,
With joyful Hosannas, the blest of the Lord.
3 Those arms, which embrac'd little children of old,
Still love to encircle the lambs of the fold;
That grace which inviteth the wandering home,
Hath never forbidden the youngest to come,
Hath never forbidden the youngest to come.
4 Hosanna! Hosanna! Great Teacher, we raise
Our hearts and or voices in hymning Thy praise;
For precept and promise so graciously giv'n,
For blessings of earth, and for glories of heav'n,
For blessings of earth, and for glories of heav'n.

Person Name: Anon. Author of "We gather, we gather, dear Jesus, to bring" in The Lutheran Hymnary 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.
