Charles Albert Tindley wrote this song; Washington Phillips recorded it.
Blue Bell Ice Cream used it in one of their commercials.

That kind of moment must have been quite a relief.

here's part of a poem written by a beatnik named lawrence Ferlinghetti
The world is a beautiful place to be born into if you don't mind happiness not always being so very much fun
If you don't mind a touch of hell now and then just when everything is fine
because even in heaven they don't sing all the time.
Thought-provoking, Nancy.
