Good work! Not a lot of congregations out there that can sing the shapes!

This was an AL-MS shape-note singing convention not a regular church service congregation.

Thanks so much for the info, and may the Good Lord bless all at McConnell Chapel for this fine rendition of a beautiful song.

I ask someone, Please, to tell me, what the name of the book and the title of the song that they are singing here. I really love to hear this song, and would love to have the song for my group.  Thanks.

The title is "There is Glory with the Lord" by Adger M. Pace and Rosa Nell Powell first published in 1937. They sung from Ben Speer Music's Convention Book for 1996, MATCHLESS GRACE p.14 compiled by Harold Lane

This is to ALL singers of song at McConnell Chapel. I LOVE to sing the notes too. My father taught the DO to DO eight note singing, as I do now. Got a singing school going on now in Southwest Va. I would love to know the name of this song you sing here, and I believe its "Jesus Made Me Glad" but unsure. Please email me if you will, and let me know the book and the name of the song. yaesuham2 at yahoo
