Thanks Gary. Your input is gratefully received.
I'm analytical to a fault, but something makes me keep asking, "What is it about 'What a Friend We Have in Jesus,'? I've concluded one thing is that it draws people in. A mystery.

Thanks, gentlemen. Means a lot to me.
Always challenges. You know how with the band you turn the vocals or the solo instrument loose, as they call it, for a couple of lines? I'd like to capture that in a home recording. smile

Hello Ed ...

Listening to this makes me think back to the 1950s when my grandparents tuned in WSM on Saturday nights and caught the Grand Old Opry. And at The end of the year we were blessed with these country gospel standards. And you did a wonderful job on this ... taking me back to those treasured days. That was a wonderful listen and flashback... thank you!

Wishing you & yours the very best. Merry Christmas & God Bless.

Alan & Di

I love your voice on these old time gospel tunes. I felt like the bpm could've come up slightly, but maybe I'm just remembering how I heard this song as a youngster. Regardless, a beautiful rendition!

Thank you for those kind comments. A Merry Christmas and well-deserved 2021 for each and every one.
Tunemonger: I'm running between 80-85 BPM lately, mainly in order to accommodate holding whole notes and tied notes for that sustained effect. Will consider bumping it up.
Al & Di : As you know, I'm immersed in that 19th century to 1939 period. I know music reflects the worship style of the period. Who knows, may even drive it. I suspect the music is a bridge between the social aspect of church and the serious gospel message. In this time period, we see the roots of the Evangelical movement, you know, Billy Sunday. It is really interesting study, that period of time. Today, I was listening to Sam Cooke and the Souls Stirrers. Now, there is a bridge to the not so distant past. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXt-I2bIdZE
James: Thanks for that.
Babu: I appreciate your listening and commenting. We have a mutual admiration society smile

Hello edShaw,

You could put your composition on soundcloud, because on the link you gave I have no sound. Thanks.

Kindly regards

Takes us back to the old whitewashed country churches on dirt roads that we grew up with.

Well done!

Thank you for those kind words, folks.
In response to Derochette's post, I put the piece up on Soundcloud. Sorry to hear Drooble is acting up, though, not unusual for sites to have problems. Soundcloud has spoiled us. I think Drooble is Spotify. Anyway:

This is a very nice version of the song. Very comforting to hear and to sing along with.
Sing-a-long with Ed!
