Thread Name: Lyr Req: several Old Gospel songs
Subject: Old Gospel Lyrics
Hi! - I'm a MudcatThreadVirgin, but here goes : Does anyone have the lyrics of the following old Gospel numbers : This Song of Love (middle georgia singing convention #1) / Happy On the Way (fa sol la singers)/ If the Light Has Gone Out of Your Soul (Ernest Phipps and His Holiness Singers) / I Know That Jesus Set Me Free (the same Ernest)/ Don't Make It Too Late (Mrs L. Reed & Mrs TA Duncans) / There's a Beautiful City Called Heaven (Virginia Dandies) :- the recordings I have are very hard to decipher!! Also, if anyone knows of a link to the music scores for the first two shape-note songs, I'd be grateful (S-N hymnals are almost unheard of, here DownUnder!!) And while I'm at it - what about the lyrics of (I Found A) Hiding Place (Carl Story / Johnson Mtn Boys)??? - those boys sing too fast for my ears and my hand!!! Cheers.
