Susan, this is amazing! I just re-typed this lovely old revival song into my database yesterday from an old hand-typed copy. You may be interested to know that this graceful hymn dates back to 1709, being composed by Isaac Watts. Its original title was "The Hopes of Heaven Our Support Under Trials on Earth " which although to the point was quite a mouthful; they shortened the title in the hymnal to "Saints Delight." Among the folk song community, the song is probably better known as "Green Pastures." Congregations in Southern Appalachia have sung this song for well over 200 years, following the melody and harmony in their "shape-note" hymnals.
