Keep me true, Lord Jesus, keep me true,
Keep me true, Lord Jesus, keep me true,
There's a race that must be run,
There's a vict'ry to be won,
Ev'ry hour by Thy pow'r keep me true.

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 >
