I Will Never Turn Back

Author: R. N. Grisham; R. E. W. Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3182 First Line: Once I wandered in darkness unsaved Lyrics: 1. Once I wandered in darkness unsaved, Till the Savior came knocking at my heart, And I opened the door, let Him in, Now rich blessings to me He imparts. Refrain I will never turn back, He’s my Light ev’ry day, No I’ll never turn back, For my Savior is leading the way. 2. Of His love I will sing ev’ry day, Yes, I’ll sing of His wondrous pow’r to save, For my Savior is leading the way, To those mansions of glory above. [Refrain] 3. In His service each day may I be, Leading sinners to Jesus to be healed Thro’ the blood flowing from Calvary, Till the light of His love is revealed. [Refrain] 4. Healing body and soul by His blood, And He keeps me each moment by His pow’r, I will walk in the light of His Word, And be ready to go anywhere. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Once I wandered in darkness unsaved]

R. E. Winsett

1876 - 1952 Person Name: R. E. W. Author (v. 4) of "I Will Never Turn Back" in The Cyber Hymnal Robert Emmett Winsett (January 15, 1876 — June 26, 1952 (aged 76) was an American composer and publisher of Gospel music. Winsett was born in Bledsoe County, Tennessee, and graduated from the Bowman Normal School of Music in 1899. He founded his own publishing company in 1903, and his first publication, Winsett's Favorite Songs, quickly became popular among the Baptist and Pentecostal churches of the American South. Pentecostal Power followed in 1907; that year Winsett completed postgraduate work at a conservatory. He married Birdie Harris in 1908, and had three sons and two daughters with her. He settled in Fort Smith, Arkansas, continuing to compose gospel songs, of which he would write over 1,000 in total. He became a minister in 1923, and was affiliated with the Church of God (Seventh Day). Birdie Harris died late in the 1920s, and shortly thereafter Winsett moved back to Tennessee. He founded a new company in Chattanooga, and published more shape note music books. He remarried, to Mary Ruth Edmonton, in 1930, and had three further children. Winsett's final publication, Best of All (1951), sold over 1 million copies, and in total his books sold over ten million copies. His song "Jesus Is Coming Soon" won a Dove Award for Gospel Song of the Year at the 1969 awards. He has been inducted into the Southern Gospel Museum and Hall of Fame. --www.wikipedia.org
