Click on title to link to YouTube's film clip of Pete Seeger's now famous 1960s (black and white, that's the give-away)"Rainbow Quest" for the performer in this entry's headline.
Markin comment:
This series, featuring Pete Seeger and virtually most of the key performers in the 1960s folk scene is a worthy entry into the folk archival traditions for future revivalists to seek out. There were thirty plus episodes (some contained more than one performer of note, as well as Pete solo performances). I have placed the YouTube film clips here one spot over four days, November 10-13, 2009 for the reader's convenience.

"I am going to lay down my life for my lord"
ReplyDeleteI can hear you whisper
I can feel the heartbeat of my true destiny
I can see you in the distance
Standing at the crossroads sayin “Come follow me”
And I know what it cost to follow
To say I want to go where you go
But still it isn't hard to decide
‘Cause Lord, I realize that I can't
Really be alive until I….
Lay down my life
And take up my cross
All that was gained to me before
I count it as loss
And I'm trading it all
A small sacrifice
For the knowledge of Christ
I lay down my life
I know that I can't go on any longer
Until I learn to completely surrender
My will to your will
My way to your way
Take me Lord
My heart is yours
Forever from today
