Thread Name: OLD Gospel tunes
Subject: RE: OLD Gospel tunes
This could go on endlessly. I assume you're meaning tunes with the Old Time Gospel sound. CyberHymnal is a good place to look for your words & music.

Gospel that I like & fit your time frame. Look for more by the same people.
Oh How I love Jesus (traditional)
We're Marching to Zion (Come We that love the lord) Ro­bert Low­ry, 1867
Shall we gather at the river (words & music by Lowry)
I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice (1875-Fanny Crosby/W.H.Doane)
Blessed Assurance (Fanny Crosby/Phoebe Knapp)

Other composers to look for are Bliss, Bradbury.

Try browsing in the later hymnals of the Stone-Cambell Movement as well.
