Gospel Songs by Jimmy Swaggart

Jimmy Swaggart is still one of my favorite singers, and piano players, and I hope he don’t mind me having his songs here. I have tried to put the songs in alphabetical order so I can get a better idea of what to add on, and in the process, I lost a few songs! Some other songs have been taken off the YouTube since I posted them. May these songs bless you as much as they bless me. The other day I came across the posting of his early records, and they were such a blessing to me. I used to own a copy of those records back in the 70’s when I was in Africa. So I have added them at the end of the list, numbers 98 – 100. God bless brother Swaggart.

1. A crown of thorns

2. A house of gold

The chorus says: “I’d rather be in a deep dark grave.”

SERMONS

1. Will the circle be unbroken

Do yourself a favor, and listen to this sermon. I was visiting South Africa back in 1970, and I went to a meeting of Pastor Arthur Nipper. He was the agent for Jimmy Swaggart’s records at that time, and I bought all his song records. Then Pastor Nipper said I should buy some of the preaching records too. So I bought two of them, but I never listened to them. Later on I was singing at a church in Durban, and a guy asked me if I had the record: “Will the circle be unbroken?” I said I did, and he rode a long way back to the Concord mission home where I was staying, and paid me for the record. He went away so happy, that I figured the record must be very good. So then I listened to the other one about “What shall the end be” and ended up on my knees beside the record player. Many years later I was singing in a church in Tzaneen, and the pastor had the record “Will the circle be unbroken” that I hadn’t listened to. So I was listening to it in the pastor’s living room about how his mother was praying for him and crying as he was pretending to sleep. The tears were running down my cheeks as I sat there next to the record player. Then the pastor’s with came in from outside, and saw me crying. I felt like such a fool. But that story moved me so much. Many years later I was driving my car, and I wrote a song about brother Swaggart’s story, and I was writing the song, I was crying, and praying for my son, that the devil can’t have my boy! My son is all grown up now, and loves the Lord so much, and I think he is the greatest person in the whole world. I use him as my model for Jesus in my Bible comics.
