Sinner, go, will you go

Hymnal: The Gospel Awakening #88 (1888) Lyrics: 1. Sinner, go, will you go, To the high lands of Eden? Where the storms never blow, And the long summer's given; Where the bright blooming flow'rs Are their odors emitting; And the leaves of the bow'rs In the breezes are flitting? 2. Where the saints robed in white, Cleansed in life's flowing fountain, Shining beauteous and bright, They inhabit the mountain; Where no sin nor dismay, Neither trouble nor sorrow, Will be felt for a day, Nor be feared for the morrow. 3. He's prepared thee a home, Sinner, canst thou believe it? And invites thee to come, Sinner, wilt thou receive it? O! come, sinner, come, For the tide is receding, And the Saviour will soon And forever cease pleading. Tune Title: [Sinner, go, will you go]

The land of promise

Hymnal: The Morning Star #39 (1877) First Line: Sinner go, will you go Lyrics: 1 Sinner go, will you go To the high-lands of heaven; Where the storms never blow, And the long summer's given? Where the bright blooming flowers Are their odors emitting; And the leaves of the bowers In the breezes are flitting? 2 Where the rich golden fruit Is in bright clusters pending, And the deep laden boughs Of life's fair tree are bending; And where life's crystal stream Is unceasingly flowing, And the verdure is green, And eternally growing? 3 He's prepared thee a home-- Sinner, canst thou believe it? And invites thee to come-- Sinner, wilt thou receive it? Oh come, sinner, come, For the tide is receding, And the Saviour will soon, And forever, cease pleading. Tune Title: [Sinner go, will you go]

Anonymous

Person Name: Unknown Author of "Sinner, Come, Will You Go?" in The Best of All 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.

W. McDonald

1820 - 1901 Person Name: Rev. W. McDonald Arranger of "The Sinner Invited" in Beulah Songs McDonald, Rev. William. (Belmont, Maine, March 1, 1820--September 11, 1901, Monrovia, California). Becoming a local preacher in the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1839 he was admitted to the Maine Conference in 1843, being transferred to that of Wisconsin in 1855 and of New England in 1859. For a number of years he was editor of the Advocate of Christian Holiness. In addition to being a writer of biographies and religious books, he compiled, or assisted in compiling, a number of song books of the gospel song type, among them being the Western Minstrel (1840), Wesleyan Minstrel (1853), Beulah Songs (1870), Tribute of Praise (1874). This last book was that which had been compiled by McDonald and L.F. Snow, and re-edited by Eben Tourjée, appeared in 1882 as the official hymnal of the Methodist Protestant Church. From 1870 he spent many years in evangelistic work before his retirement to Monrovia.
