1 Great Jehovah! God of nations!
From Thy tem­ple in the skies
Hear Thy people’s sup­pli­ca­tions,
Now for their de­liv­er­ance rise.

2 Though our sins, our hearts con­found­ing,
Long and loud up­on Thee call,
Thou hast mer­cy more abound­ing,
Jesus’s blood can cleanse them all.

2 Let that love veil our trans­gress­ion;
Let that blood our guilt ef­face;
Save Thy people from op­press­ion,
Save from spoil Thy ho­ly place.

4 Lo! with deep con­tri­tion turn­ing,
Humbly at Thy feet we bend,
Hear us, fast­ing, pray­ing, mourn­ing—
Hear us, spare us, and de­fend.

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. Go to person page >
