I wish I knew what corps this was because this rendition of the Founder's song is perfect for my community radio program, but if I don't have the name of the corps, Socan would get rather cranky.
General William Booth only wrote the Words. - The music is the tune of My jesus I Love Thee. - It's a great song. - Thanks for posting most enjoyable performance,
Oh what a lovely recording of the "Founders Song"!Kids chattering and clapping along in true SA style! The song is my very earliest recollection of the SA and was sung at my wedding to my dear Joy (and why not?). Would love to sing along fortissimo but words just won,t come....to choked up! Blessed be Thou.
all men come roll over me???????
