Oh, I love that song! I had the choir sing it at my oldest daughter's baptism, many years ago, and I'm going to make sure it's on the program at my funeral.

It looks like you have more verses here than my hymnal - oh goody! And I see from your link that the melody is in the "Southern Harmony," so I can get all four parts.

You may enjoy This Link . It has the words and the background to many old hymns.

Yes, it's a wonderful song.

I enjoy going to www.cyberhymnal.org and getting the words to hymns and other songs.

What a lovely song for a funeral, "I will arise and go to Jesus, He will embrace me in His arms ... ".

And for a baptism too.

Thanks,
jm
