Author: Miss E. Sherman Hymnal: Crowning Glory No. 1 #61 (1890) Refrain First Line: Singing, singing on the way Lyrics: 1 Come, ye children, march along,
With a sturdy heart and strong,
With a merry face and song,
To the Savior's kingdom.
Chorus:
Singing, singing on the way,
Singing, singing ev'ry day;
With a merry heart and gay,
Singing on the way.
2 Are temptations in your way?
Fight them bravely day by day;
They will flee from you away,
At a pray'r to Jesus. [Chorus]
3 Are the skies with clouds o'ercast,
Damp and chilly is the blast?
Oh! the sunbeams will at last,
Brighten all for Jesus. [Chorus]
4 Tho' the hours are dark and sad,
Seems there less of good than bad,
Make thyself and others glad,
With a song of Jesus. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Come, ye children, march along]

================
Peter Philip Bilhorn was born, in Mendota, IL. His father died in the Civil War 3 months before he was born. His early life was not easy. At age 8, he had to leave school to help support the family. At age 15, living in Chicago, he had a great singing voice and sang in German beer gardens there. At this time, he and his brother also formed the Eureka Wagon & Carriage Works in Chicago, IL. At 18 Peter became involved in gospel music, studying under George F. Root and George C. Stebbins. He traveled to the Dakotas and spent some time sharing the gospel with cowboys there. He traveled extensively with D. L. Moody, and was Billy Sunday's song leader on evangelistic endeavors. His evangelistic work took him into all the states of the Union, Great Britain, and other foreign countries. In London he conducted a 4000 voice choir in the Crystal Palace, and Queen Victoria invited him to sing in Buckinghm Palace. He wrote some 2000 gospel songs in his lifetime. He also invented a folding portable telescoping pump organ, weighing 16 lbs. It could be set up in about a minute. He used it at revivals in the late 19th century. He founded the Bilhorn Folding Organ Company in Chicago. IL, and his organ was so popular it was sold all over the world. He edited 10 hymnals and published 11 gospel songbooks. He died in Los Angeles, CA, in 1936.
