Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Dont Be Ashamed of Jesus by Lewis Family From: sed Date: 03 Nov 03 - 08:21 AM 'Hey Zeus' and 'Jesus' aren't always pronounced the same, dear lyrical brother CraigS. Susan, I will try to transcribe the recording in a few minutes but it may be tomorrow or later before I can post. Are you familiar with the Lewis Family? The older members have passed on and the second generation seems to be struggling with health problems but those who are still left are still performing. I found one of their CD's at the radio station where I work. Steve |

Subject: Lyr Add: DON'T BE ASHAMED OF JESUS (C Harrelson) From: sed Date: 04 Nov 03 - 12:19 PM Yes, I agree, Lewis and Clark, Laurie Lewis and the Gospel singing Lewis family are all okay in my book: As far as I can tell, here are the lyrics as best I could transcribe them from the CD: The song is evidently by Claude Harrelson. Have you ever heard of him? chorus: Don't be ashamed of Jesus if you want to make it through. Don't be ashamed of Jesus or He'll be ashamed of you. I walked in the dark many years of my life. My pride kept me from the light but then Jesus came, oh, praise His name, and brought me out of the night. [to chorus, followed by a banjo and then a mandolin solo] Now, I'm not ashamed to call Jesus' name [*pronounced Jesus] and when the great day shall come I just want to hear my saviour say my servant you will come home. [to Chorus] The Lewis Family is apparently from Lincolnton, Lincon County, Georgia. The father was known as Pop. There were four sons and three daughters in the group along with Pop in about 1975. One son married and left the group. The remaining members by age were as of about 1975: Miggie, Polly, Janis and the men were: Wallace, Talmadge and Little Roy. Susan will be interested that in the album notes a point was made that the group often performed in PA where their kind of music was evidently popular. |
