I'm looking for the lyrics to 2 hymns written by my great uncle Oscar Kirkland. They were published by Stamps Baxter and are "He'll forgive if you pray" and "This world cannot compare." I would love to see what he wrote. I'm not even sure which of their publications these are in.

I have the citations from when they were copyrighted along with all the "Glory Special" hymns, which was a huge copyright effort including a huge lot of hymns. I'll have to check to see if the citaton includes year of first publication. I suspect it was 40's or early 50's but that's not a very narrow search! Thanks for the offer. I'll let you know if I find anything

There is a site: Archive.org, that had digitized many books, check this URL:

I am looking for the Stamps and Baxter song book called Saving Power from 1973. There is a song in there I use to sing when I was little and would love to have it. I have searched everywhere for that book and can not seem to locate one? Would anyone know where I could fine one?
