Name the hymn "The Lord Will Find A Way For Me" - not the one you are thinking of.

Ok, I have a copy of an old recording, and I am trying to figure out the correct title and author for it (trying to license for recording)

The title, as listed, is "The Lord Will Find a Way For Me", but I am not sure that is correct. It is an old quartet piece, so there is a lot of echoing and extra intros to lines, but it is basically this:

Verse
As I travel through this land of sorrow,
I am facing God's eternity
There I never think about tomorrow
(yes my) God will make a way for me.

Chorus:
I know the Lord will make a way for me
I know the Lord will keep me glad and free
When I'm sad, all the friends I've had will come to make me glad (so glad)
Matters not how lonely (or how troubled) I may be.

(I know the Lord) God will keep me safe from harm (from every harm)
I know the Lord will shelter from the storm (the raging storm)
He'll be near even when I fear, then my prayers he'll hear [not sure if that is right]
I know He'll make a way for me (a way for me)


Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Could it be Palmer Wheeler?
He was in a quartet.
He wrote I Know The Lord Will Find A Way For Me

No, it is definately not the one written by Palmer Wheeler, though I grew up learning that song.
