Author: J. W. B. Appears in 43 hymnals First Line: I’m a soldier bound for glory Refrain First Line: Hallelujah, bound for glory Lyrics: 1 I’m a soldier bound for glory, I’m a soldier marching on, Come and hear me tell my story, All who long in sin have gone. Refrain: Hallelujah, bound for glory, Saved thro’ Jesus blood I stand; Saved for service, saved for Heaven, Sweetly saved in Beulah-land. 2 Now I’ll tell you what induced me For the better world to start; ‘Twas the Savior’s loving-kindness Overcame and won my heart. [Refrain] 3 It was early in the morning, Just before the break of day, That the angel came from glory, And he rolled the stone away. [Refrain] 4 When I first with Christ enlisted, Many said I’d turn again; But I thro’ each day resisted, In the ranks I still remain. [Refrain] 5 Many say I am too noisy, But I know the reason why; If they only felt the glory, They would shout as well as I! [Refrain] 6 Some say that John the Baptist Was nothing but a Jew, But the Bible plainly tells me That he had salvation too. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [I’m a soldier bound for glory]

Authors, composers, editors, etc.

Anonymous

Person Name: Anon. Author of "I love Jesus, Hallelujah!" in The Song Book of the Salvation Army In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Richard Jukes

1804 - 1867 Person Name: Richard Jukes (1804-67) Author of "I love Jesus, hallelujah" in The Song Book of the Salvation Army Rv Richard Jukes United Kingdom 1804-1867. Born at Clungunford, Shropshire, England, his father a stone mason, he was a prankster when young. He followed his father’s trade and became a stone mason for awhile before becoming an itinerant preacher. In 1829 he was part of a team missioning in Wiltshire and Aldbourne. His preaching was sometimes disturbed by efforts to disband the crowd, he even at times had eggs thrown at him. However, a society was formed and a barn was obtained for a place of worship. He was known as “the bard of the poor”. Over time he became a popular Primitive Methodist minister and hymn writer. He married Phoebe Pardoe (1805-1826) in 1825, but she died of typhus after less than a year of marriage. Later, after her death, he married Charlotte Smith (1806-1873), and they had eight children: Mariam, Charlotte, Thomas, Joshua, Amelia, Rowland, Richmond, and Martha. He ministered from 1827 to 1859 at 17 different circuits.. He ministry was widely appreciated. It is noteworthy that several of his appointments were to significant circuits of that time: Tunstall, Staffordshire, Ramsor, and Darlaston in the Black Country, where he spent a large part of his active ministry, retiring there. One trait he had was when writing hymn lyrics, he would try to pair them with popular tunes of the day and sing them in the streets so others would do the same.. and many did. He died at West Bromwich, England. John Perry
