Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Prepare Me One Body

I cannot find earlier publication of this song than Roland Hayes, 1948, "My Songs: Aframerican Religious Folk Songs Arranged and Interpreted by Roland Hayes," Little, Brown and Company, An Atlantic Monthly Press Book, Boston.
It is part of the Roland Hayes song cycle, "Life of Christ."

Both Roland Hayes and Charles Heston may be heard on Yahoo! Music, singing this song.
