Unknown Name or writers - You may not see my face in the paper, you may not see my name up in lights

My band recorded a song for a CD project and we were unable to find the copyright or writers for this song:
Verse 1:
You may not see my face in the paper, you may not see my name up in lights,
And you won’t find my name in the great hall of fame, just for tryin’ to do what is right,
I may not make a lasting impression, on the people that I chance to meet,
But I made an impression on Jesus, one night when I knelt at His feet.
Chorus:
And I know that I matter to Jesus, for He’s taken me into the fold,
To the world I may look like a pauper, but I’ve something that’s worth more than gold,
In the eyes of the world I’m a loser, but I’m a winner and someday I’ll reign,
In a mansion, joint heir with Jesus, since He made me a child of the King!
Verse 2:
So, let the world have its fill of vain glory, for it’s lost all attraction to me,
I must glory in the work He completed, when He hung there on dark Calvary,
And I‘ve found all the treasures I’d needed, when He gave me this new song to sing,
Praise God I’m joint heir with Jesus, since He made me a child of the King.
Ron and Sharon Frazier recorded it many years ago when song licensing rules weren't as strict as they are now. I need to credit the writers if I wish to include it on a future CD project. I had to leave it off of the CD I wanted it on.
