Subject: Lyr Add: GLORY TO THE LAMB'
Glory to the Lamb probably comes from Elmer Bird and the Prairie Ramblers version in 1930. The Carters recorded theirs in 1935. It appears in a Hymn Collection titled the New Onward and Upward( Logansport, Indiana; Home Music Co.) around 1900.
GLORY TO THE LAMB Carter Family
Oh glory oh glory oh glory to the lamb Hallelujah I am saved and I'm so glad I am Oh glory oh glory oh glory to the lamb Hallelujah I am saved and I'm so glad I am
On Monday I am happy on Tuesday full of joy Wednesday I've got the faith the devil cant destroy On Thursday and Friday walking in the light Saturday I've got the victory and Sunday's always bright
I fell in love with Jesus and he fell in love with me That's the very reason I've got the victory I'm happy when it's raining I'm happy when it shines I'm happy now with Jesus I'm happy all the time
