  THERE IS A BALM IN GILEAD

  There is a balm in Gilead
  To make the wounded whole;
  There is a balm in Gilead
  To heal the sin sick soul.

  Some times I feel discouraged,
  And think my work’s in vain,
  But then the Holy Spirit
  Revives my soul again.

  Refrain

  If you can’t preach like Peter,
  If you can’t pray like Paul,
  Just tell the love of Jesus,
  And say He died for all

  This was one we sang at church. Also, Swing Low, Sweet Chariot We Are Climbing Jacob's Ladder Jesus, Keep Me Near The Cross, etc.

  What was the one that sounded like the Russian (or Soviet Union) national anthem? I used to hear it during the Olympics. The dub song that is clearly based on it was often played at assemblies/conventions.
