1862 - 1929 Person Name: C. H. M. Author of "Shine and Keep Sweet" in Pentecostal Hymns Nos. 5 and 6 Combined Lelia (Mrs. C.H.) Morris (1862-1929) was born in Pennsville, Morgan County, Ohio. When her family moved to Malta on the Muskingum River she and her sister and mother had a millinery shop in McConnelsville. She and her husband Charles H. Morris were active in the Methodist Episcopal Church and at the camp meetings in Sebring and Mt. Vernon. She wrote hymns as she did her housework.

She is said to have written 1000 texts and many tunes including "Sweeter as the years go by." Mary Louise VanDyke
