25 Jan 99 - 06:42 PM (#55674) Subject: lookin' for From: Walt I've got this old song in my head which has a chorus (?) which goes like this: "You can tell the world about this, you can tell the nation about that, Tell 'em that the new world's been won, Tell 'em that the gospel's begun, He brought joy, joy, joy into my heart". If anyone has any idea of the name of this song or where I could find it, please e-mail Walt at tboyd@smmusd.org |

I tried to search the DT, but it is not working for me today. I suspect some other Chicago Mudcatters have this song firmly cemented in their heads. Good luck!! Roger in Baltimore

26 Jan 99 - 01:22 PM (#55751) Subject: RE: lookin' for Joy Joy Joy From: Joe Offer The recording I remember is on Wednesday Morning 3 AM by Simon and Garfunkel. It's called "You Can Tell the World," by B. Gibson and B. Camp (Bob Gibson & Hamilton Camp, but that's another story). Interestingly, only 4 of the 12 songs on this CD are attributed to Paul Simon. The other 4 albums are almost completely Paul Simon songs. -Joe Offer- |

He brought joy, joy, joy into my heart.
My lord spoke, he spoke so well
My lord spoke, he spoke so well
Jordan River is chilly and wide
My lord spoke to you and me (...and he spoke to me)
I heard him well and I was told (I don't know but I've been told)
Sometimes I hang my head and cry
One of these days and it won't be long This is a great song based on an older spiritual. AS stated above version are on the Simon & Garfunkel "Wednesday Morning 3AM", Chad Mitchell Trio "At the Bitter End", "The Best of the CMT" "The Chad Mitchell Trio Reunion Pt 1" " , Gibson & Camp "At The Gate of Horn" and "At the Gate of Horn Revisited", Bob Gibson "Yes I See". This past fall I heard Peter Paul & Mary open a concert with it. Joe, Actually there are 5 songs written by Simon on the Wed 3 AM recording and a 6th "Benedictus" that they take credit for "adapting and arranging" the famous catchall. The confusion arrises because "He Was My Brother" is listed by Paul Kane, aka Paul Simon. Kind of like "For Bobbi" by H J Deutchendorf. rich r

McGuinn was a big fan o' Mr. Gibson & Mr. Camp. Art |

I guess this is the traditional version. -Joe Offer- YOU CAN TELL THE WORLD CHORUSWell, He took my feet out of the miry clay, yes, He did, And He placed them on the rock to stay, yes, He did. CHORUS Well, you know, my Lord done just what He said, yes, He did, He healed the sick and He raised the dead, yes, He did. CHORUS |
