written by Rev. James Cleveland, C.George
Sung by Carolyn Dennis during the 1980-81 part of the Gospel tours
Tabbed by Eyolf Østrem
Sung with piano accompaniement only. On a guitar it is most comfortably played with a capo on the 3rd fret.
And don’t try the high Eb at the end of the bridge unless you’re a (very) high soprano…
