Written by James Cleveland Moore in 1914. Moore was a Missionary Baptist minister, and a singing teacher in Spaulding County, Georgia. It appears to have been based on an earlier song, "That Beautiful Land" written in 1889 by Mrs. F. A. F. White.
We'd like to include a variety of examples of how each song here can be performed, so please send us a video of your interpretation of this great old gospel number and we'll share it here.
