lyrics:
Do Lord, oh, do Lord, do remember me
Do Lord, oh, do Lord, oh, do remember me
Do Lord, oh, do Lord, do remember me
Way beyond the Blue
I’ve got a home in Glory Land that outshines the sun
I’ve got a home in Glory Land that outshines the sun
I’ve got a home in Glory Land that outshines the sun
Way beyond the Blue
Do Lord, oh, do Lord, do remember me
Do Lord, oh, do Lord, oh, do remember me
Do Lord, oh, do Lord, do remember me
Way beyond the Blue
I took Jesus as My Savior, you take Him too
I took Jesus as My Savior, you take Him too
I took Jesus as My Savior, you take Him too
While He’s still calling you
Oh do Lord, oh, do Lord, do remember me
Do Lord, oh, do Lord, oh, do remember me
Do Lord, oh, do Lord, do remember me
A way beyond the Blue
Do Lord, oh, do Lord, do remember me
Do Lord, oh, do Lord, oh, do remember me
Do Lord, do Lord, oh, do remember me
Way beyond the Blue
Mississippi John Hurt, birth name John Smith Hurt was born in 1893 in Mississippi and died in 1966 in Mississippi.
~ American country-blues singer and guitarist who first recorded in the late 1920s but whose greatest fame and influence came when he was rediscovered in the early 1960s at the height of the American folk music revival (Britannica.com)
“Do Lord, Do Remember Me was first recorded in 1924 by the Garner Brothers. It’s said to have originally been a Spiritual from the 1860s, sung by slaves in the fields across the American South in the mid-19th century, yet Julia Ward Howe is frequently given credit of its authorship.” (folksingers.com)

Good song I remember well. 🙂
Thank you!
The song got stuck in my head – for some reason – earlier this week, so I figured I’d use it today.
