We Are But Young

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #15512 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: We are but young—yet we may sing Lyrics: 1 We are but young—yet we may sing The praises of our heav’nly king; He made the earth, the sea, the sky, And all the starry worlds on high. 2 We are but young—yet we have heard The Gospel news, the heav’nly word: If we despise the only way, Dreadful will be the judgment day. 3 We are but young—yet we must die, Perhaps our latter end is nigh; Lord, may we early seek Thy grace, And find in Christ a hiding place. 4 We are but young—we need a guide; Jesus, in Thee we would confide; O lead us in the path of truth, Protect and bless our helpless youth. 5 We are but young—yet God has shed Unnumbered blessings on our head; Then, let our youth and riper days Be all devoted to His praise.

Author of "We Are But Young" in The Cyber Hymnal 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.
