    My husband is a letter carrier and a follower of Christ. I can’t wait to tell him the history of this gospel song. Thank you very much for sharing it.

      Wonderful! Glad the song blessed you, and hope it will bless your husband too. It’s a reminder that our hymns and gospel songs come from those in all walks of life. God bless.

    The song came to my mind while my dad was recently dying in hospital. It has not left me ever since and comforted me very much.
