Sinner Go
Author: G. H. P. Shawalter Appears in 113 hymnals First Line: Sinner go, will you go Refrain First Line: Sinner go, will you go Lyrics: 1. Sinner, go, will you go,
To the high land of heaven,
Where the storms never blow,
And the long summer's given,
Where the bright blooming flow'rs,
Are their odors emitting,
And the leaves of the bow'rs,
In the breezes are flitting.
Refrain:
Sinner go, will you go,
where there's rest for the blest,
In the highland of heaven?
2 Where the saints robed in white
Cleansed in life's flowing fountain,
Shining beauteous and bright,
They inhabit the mountain;
Where no sin nor dismay,
Neither trouble nor sorrow,
Will be felt for a day,
Nor be feared for the morrow. [Refrain]
3 He's prepared thee a home
Sinner canst thou believe it?
And invites thee to come
Sinner, wilt thou receive it?
Come, oh, come sinner, come,
For the tide is receding,
And the Savior will soon,
And forever, cease pleading. [Refrain]

In the breezes are flitting?

Neither trouble nor sorrow,
Will be felt for a day,
Nor be feared for the morrow.

The land of promise
Hymnal: The Morning Star #39 (1877) First Line: Sinner go, will you go Lyrics: 1 Sinner go, will you go
To the high-lands of heaven;
Where the storms never blow,
And the long summer's given?
Where the bright blooming flowers
Are their odors emitting;
And the leaves of the bowers
In the breezes are flitting?
2 Where the rich golden fruit
Is in bright clusters pending,
And the deep laden boughs
Of life's fair tree are bending;
And where life's crystal stream
Is unceasingly flowing,
And the verdure is green,
And eternally growing?
3 He's prepared thee a home--
Sinner, canst thou believe it?
And invites thee to come--
Sinner, wilt thou receive it?
Oh come, sinner, come,
For the tide is receding,
And the Saviour will soon,
And forever, cease pleading. Tune Title: [Sinner go, will you go]

The Sinner's Invitation
Anonymous
Person Name: Unknown Author of "Sinner, Come, Will You Go?" in The Best of All In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

W. McDonald
1820 - 1901 Person Name: Rev. W. McDonald Arranger of "The Sinner Invited" in Beulah Songs McDonald, Rev. William. (Belmont, Maine, March 1, 1820--September 11, 1901, Monrovia, California). Becoming a local preacher in the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1839 he was admitted to the Maine Conference in 1843, being transferred to that of Wisconsin in 1855 and of New England in 1859. For a number of years he was editor of the Advocate of Christian Holiness. In addition to being a writer of biographies and religious books, he compiled, or assisted in compiling, a number of song books of the gospel song type, among them being the Western Minstrel (1840), Wesleyan Minstrel (1853), Beulah Songs (1870), Tribute of Praise (1874). This last book was that which had been compiled by McDonald and L.F. Snow, and re-edited by Eben Tourjée, appeared in 1882 as the official hymnal of the Methodist Protestant Church. From 1870 he spent many years in evangelistic work before his retirement to Monrovia.

Thomas S. Cobb
1876 - 1942 Person Name: Thos. S. Cobb Arranger of "[Sinner go, will you go]" in The New Wonderful Songs for Work and Worship Thomas S. Cobb (1876-1942), a native Texan, was educated in much the same circles as [Austin] Taylor, and received his music diploma from the Western Normal and College of Music in Dallas. He taught singing schools across Texas and the bordering states, and was particularly noted for the "Cobb Quartet" made up of his four daughters. He was recruited to Firm Foundation by Showalter in 1935.(Finley, 122ff.) Cobb edited only four hymnals for Firm Foundation before his death in 1942, but among these was the significant New Wonderful Songs (1933); at 296 hymns it was part of the trend toward more substantial publications.
Prior to his work with Firm Foundation, Cobb edited hymnals for the Quartet Music Company of Fort Worth, Texas. A search of WorldCat.org shows that he was involved with at least 7 books for this publisher, going back as far as the 1890s when it was called the "Quartette Company." One of these earlier works From the Cross to the Crown (1921?) was subtitled, "Scriptural Songs," and was co-edited with Elder T. B. Clark and T. B. Mosley, one of the most well-known singing school teachers among the Churches of Christ in the southeastern U.S. Mosley was also known as a staunch doctrinal conservative. This gives some idea of the bona fides Cobb brought with him during the era of the "hymnal controversy" surrounding E. L. Jorgenson's Great Songs of the Church. Jorgenson was firmly in the premillennial camp, and was an editor of Word and Work, the primary voice of this viewpoint within the Churches of Christ. Opponents of premillennialism objected to several hymns in Great Songs that supported this doctrine, or were at least questionable. (Most of these were removed or altered in the better-known "No. 2" edition).
Thomas S. Cobb passed from this life in 1942, shortly after the last of the pre-war Firm Foundation hymnals appeared.
