Hi,
I'm looking for lyrics to a hymn my mother sung many, many years ago. She is 87+ years and can't recall the correct name of the hymn but thinks it might have been "Oh, It Makes Me Want To Go" and some of the words were the following:
"I have so many treasures (or love ones) over yonder - Oh, it makes me want to go, I hear happy voices thant sounds like friends (or loves ones) I used to know - Oh, it makes me want to go, it makes me want to go."
Can anyone help me?
Thank you so very much!
Nancy

Dear Whiteyowhite,
Thank you so very much for these words. I'm not sure it is the song my Mother remembers but I think it probably is. I'm going to see if I can find the songbook you suggested. If I can find the music to the song, I can play it for her! Thank you again for your help!
Hope you have a blessed Thanksgiving!
Nancy
