"What a thrill of love divine, just to know that the Savior is mine!"
This has already been an amazing Sunday morning for me. What a joy to wake and enjoy "I've Been To Calvary" both listening to it several times but also loving the precious memories I associate with this song.
A few days ago, I said that I love "singing preachers". Over the years, I have said that often and usually somewhat in "jest". But I really do enjoy hearing preachers that love to sing also. This song is the reason why! In my late teens the pastor of my church loved to sing "I've Been To Calvary". I don't recall him ever singing another song so I always called this Buster's song. Oh what a joy it was for our group to sing this with him. It was almost like revival meeting every time. I love this song but I will always remember the opportunity to sing it with Buster.
I believe this was one of the first songs written by Bill Gaither (I could be wrong as I am often). It probably dates back to the early 1960's but it on of those I will never tire of hearing or singing. I pray you will be blessed today hearing The Mylon Hayes Family sing this great old song!
I pray you will have an amazing Sunday!
