Thread Name: Lyr Req: 'Life's evening sun is sinking low...'
Subject: RE: Song starts'Life's evening sun is sinking low
One objection. The link to A Beautiful Life attributes the song to Bill Monroe. Absolutely, positively incorrect! It was written by William M. Golden, copyright 1918. I have tried to do a bit of research into Mr. Golden's background, but turned up just about zero. He also wrote Where The Soul Of Man Never Dies (Canaan's Land).

My own personal favorite version is that of the Country Gentlemen.
