Thread Name: Hymns/gospel songs in jams?
Subject: RE: Hymns/gospel songs in jams?
I have been looking for a couple of old gospel-folky songs that maybe someone can help me with. One is a ballad: "There is a river wide / that flows from the tree of life / are you going there someday, friend?"

What's the rest of it? Where can I find it?

The other is more folky: "I'm gonna live forever / forever and a day / when I leave this world behind me / I'll be singing all the way"

Anyone know this one? Maybe one of you southerners can help me out with these. I haven't heard them in years, but the parts that I remember keep going around in my head. I may just rewrite them.

Thanks, Annika
