  • 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.

  • 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
