I have a youth group that meets weekly, and of course Music is very important especially to teenagers. I was trying to tell them about the song "You never mentioned Him to me" and I am looking for the lyrics. It is an old gospel song, some call it a folksong. Either way it is an awesome song. There is another oldy I think it is called "I never knew you". Can anyone out there help me in my quest?
Your help will be greatly appreciated by all!

I couldn't locate the words, but if you click that link you'll be able to hear the hymn being sung. Scroll to about five or six lines from the bottom of the page.

OK. "You Never Mentioned Him to Me" is on this site. Google

Go to page three. It's there.

It's PDF and I have no idea how to copy that or link it.

YOU NEVER MENTIONED HIM TO ME

When in the better land before the bar we stand,
How deeply grieved our souls will be;
If any lost one there should cry in deep despair,
"You never mentioned Him to me."

CHORUS: You never mentioned Him to me,
You helped me not the way to see;
You met me day by day and knew I was astray,
Yet never mentioned Him to me."

O let us spread the word _ where e'er it may be heard,
Help groping souls the light to see,
That yonder none may say, "You showed me not the way."
You never mentioned Him to me. CHORUS

A few sweet words may guide a lost one to His side,
Or turn sad eyes on Calvary;
So work as days go by, that yonder none may cry,
"You never mentioned Him to me." CHORUS

Sorry to be taking so long on this. Finally figured it'd be a good idea to Google the first line. Man, they are all OVER the place.

And I thought this was going to be a country song with a great tag line. Or maybe a 19th Century heart song. Anyway, nice to meet you Peace. I'm Joy.

Melissaw21 is not a member here but I thought I'd do what I can to help. But, until M21 gets back with info on the other, it's a nonstarter for me.

I didn't mind the dirty socks I found out in the hall,
The beer stains that are living on my Levis coveralls;
But now I'm filled with strange strange thoughts and cur-i-os-it-y,
I'm wondering how come you never mentioned him to me.

I'd like to know how long he's been a border in our bed,
And was it him you meant the night you screamed and called me Fred;
It is a bit suspicious that the bathroom's never free,
I'm wondering how come you never mentioned him to me.

The cat's been spraying everywhere, the dog's begun to howl,
I'm noticing red pubic hairs upon my favourite towel,
So tell me is there you an' me, or you and me and he,
I'm wondering how come you never mentioned him to me.

I had the strongest urge to call it "Ode to Joy". However, I have resisted the temptation.

OK!! That's the way! Nice going, Peace.
I put up signs when I'm selling CDs that read: "ODE TO JOY $20" Sadly no one seems to catch on.
                                  Thank you, Peace from Joy
