    I'm working on a track - should have it to you tonight. My voice is alto, though, so an off-key soprano is definately needed!

    And I think From House to House has great potential...

    Can somebody post the lyrics from House to House?

    All the songs and the lyrics are there. I don't know the current song number, but it should be easy to find.

    Thanks mamochan13, I look forward to receiving your rendition!

    NewChapter - I understand what you mean, but if you want to give it a go anyway and let me be your producer, I would be more than pleased!

    Okay...I'm not finding the lyrics...just the tune. Maybe it's me. Of course it's me.

    Sorry, Diana. The lyrics are actually in the "books" link. I thought I had found them originally in the "music" section. Try: http://www.jw.org/en/publications/books/?first=24

    Thanks again...I noticed they changed some of the lyrics I remember...something about

    a hearing ear?? It's been over 20 years and I still retain this crap!

    It's been over 20 years and I still retain this crap!

    Me, too! I remember 2nd verse line three as:

    "it comes upon all those who call" not "it comes to those who choose to call"

    And 3rd verse, line three:

    "whether they are sheep or goats" not "and whether it's embraced or not"

    The "hearing ear" line i think was:

    "of course it's not at every door we find a hearing ear. At times there is a scolding tongue and those who will not hear. Twas just the same in Jesus' day not all would hear his word." Can't remember the last line.

    I think I still have a brown songbook kicking around at home. I can check it when I get home from work.

    "he said his sheep would hear his voice, hence we are not deterred"

    It's like the earworm has bonded with my brain memory cells. Sheesh.
