Steady and True

Author: Katherine A. Grimes Hymnal: Awakening Songs for the Church, Sunday School and Evangelistic Services #151 (1917) First Line: Steady and true in the upward way Refrain First Line: Steady and true as the stars that shine Lyrics: 1 Steady and true, in the upward way, Never to falter, or faint, or fear; So would I travel from day to day, Knowing my Lord is near. Refrain: Steady and true as the stars that shine, So would I keep this heart of mine, Fit for a gift to my Lord divine; Steady, steady and true. 2 Steady and true thro’ the sunny days, Helping my brother to rise and smile; Scattering joy in some lonely way, Cheering some heart the while. [Refrain] 3 Steady and true when the darkness falls, Following Christ as my beacon light; Keeping the path where His dear voice calls, Whether ‘tis noon or night. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Steady and true in the upward way]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Composer of "[Steady and true in the upward way]" in World Wide Revival Songs 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
