Author: Floy S. Armstrong Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #203 (1916) First Line: How many times has He lightened our cares Lyrics: 1 How many times has He lightened our cares, Over and over again! How many times has He answered our prayres, Over and over again! then tell of His goodness to thee and to thine, And tell of His mercies to me and to mine, Repeat the old story of pardon divine, Over and over again. Chorus: Over and over again, (and over again,) Over and over again, (and over again,) O what a wonderful story to tell, Over and over again. 2 He ne'er refuses to hear, tho' we call Over and over again, Sends show'rs of blessing so freely on all, Over and over again; Oh, why are you silent so ofthen, so long, When telling the story will turn them from wrong? Then tell it, o tell it in praise or in song, Over and over again. [Chorus] 3 Tho' we may wander in byways of sin, Over and over again, the heart of Jesus will bid us come in, Over and over again; then let us be willing, wherever the place, To tell of His kindness, His pardon, His grace, And some day in glory we'll look on His face, Over and over again. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [How many times has He lightened our cares]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Composer of "[How many times has He lightened our cares]" in The New Praiseworthy Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
