Author: Ugo Nakada; June Nakada Sumida Hymnal: Hymns from the Four Winds #103 (1983) First Line: Para para, pitter pat Lyrics: 1 Para, para, pitter pat, See it rain, see it rain; Para, para, pitter pat, Tell me why it rains. So the garden hard and dry, Will be soften'd by and by, And the flowers one by one, Soon will see the sun. 2 Chira, chira, wafting down, See it snow, see it snow; Chira, chira, wafting down, Tell me why it snows. So the branches ev'rywhere, Will a snowy blanket wear; Warm and cozy they will stay, On a winter's day. 3 Kira, kira, little stars, See them shine, see them shine; Kira, kira, little stars, Tell me why you shine. So that others travelling, Over roads a-darkening, Soon will find their pathways bright, In the starry light. 4 Chu-chu, little bird, Hear it sing, hear it sing; Chu-chu, little bird, Tell me why you sing. So with others lonely, List'ning to my melody, In their hearts will hear me say, "God loves you today."

Person Name: anon. Composer of "NAKADA" in Voices United 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.
