I Will Seek my Father

Author: Paulina Hymnal: Minnetonka Songs #31 (1879) First Line: When the morn is bright and fair Lyrics: 1 When the morn is bright and fair, When sweet songsters charm the air, I will lift my voice in pray'r, I will seek my Father; Lest my feet should go astray From his pure and perfect way; Lest I grieve him as I may, I will seek my Father. 2 In the solitude apart, In the wilderness or mart, Oh! my sorely tempted heart, I will seek my Father; In the darkness as the day, He shall be my Guide and Stay; I will lean on him alway-- I will seek my Father. 3 When the evening sun is red, When each blossom droops its head, Kneeling low beside my bed, I will seek my Father; That I slumber in his care, Shielded from each harmful snare, And for life or death prepare; I will seek my Father.

Person Name: Anon. Author of "When the morn is bright and fair" in Good-Will Songs 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.
