Subject: Ain't I Glad I Got Out of The Wilderness
Hi,
I know this minstrel song is in the DT but Ain't I Glad I Got Out of The Wilderness is also a spiritual.
It's spawned several traditional versions under the titles:
How Did You Feel When You Come Out of the Wilderness
I Am Leaning on the Lord
How Did You Feel
Come Out of the Wilderness
Anybody know lyrics for spirituals with the old lyrics that include: Ain't I Glad I Got Out of The Wilderness
Apparently the spiritual was popular in 1800s and early 1900s.
