Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Across the Bridge Where Angels Dwell

Anyone have the Carolina source? Could the Hugh Murphy listed with Van be the hymnbook compiler? We all know how a traditional song can get copyrighted in someone's name. Could it be Van added the verse about the path and then claimed it all?
Blessings,
