<\/a><\/p>\n1. Think on these things<\/a><\/p>\n Back in 1971, I was singing at a church in Welkom (in the Orange Free State), and a lady gave me this record of Bud Chambers singing “Poor rich man.” It was such a blessing to me, that I wrote to him, and he sent me about six of his L.P. records. They were such a blessing. This is one of the songs on that record.<\/p>\n 2. Everybody will be happy<\/a><\/p>\n They say he wrote over 3000 songs. Unfortunately there are only a few I could find on the YouTube.<\/p>\n 3. Two roads<\/a><\/p>\n We must choose between the broad way and the narrow.<\/p>\n 4. Keep looking up<\/a><\/p>\n 5. You\u2019ve gotta move<\/a><\/p>\n So many times when the Lord wants us to “move” we are not ready. Here is a picture I drew of him for one of my tracts that I did in South Africa back in the 70’s.<\/p>\n The rest of this section is other people singing his songs.<\/p>\n 6. Bud Chambers medley\u00a0of Gospel Songs\u00a0– by a man singing and playing the piano<\/a><\/p>\n I cannot find this man’s name, but he is obviously a big fan of Bud Chambers and his gospel songs.<\/p>\n 7. I was born to serve the Lord – Ken Raggio<\/a><\/p>\n A very interesting testimony.<\/p>\n 8. I was born to serve the Lord – Becky Thornton and the Alder Creek Bluegrass Band<\/a><\/p>\n Very nicely done.<\/p>\n 9. Born to serve the Lord \u2013 Vestal Goodman \u201clive\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n She says some very good things.<\/p>\n 10. One more river to cross \u2013 David Wyper<\/a><\/p>\n I had a record of the Singing Rambos singing this song.<\/p>\n 11. I will follow Thee \u2013 Lynda Randle<\/a><\/p>\n She must also be a fan of Bud Chambers and his Gospel Songs.<\/p>\n 12. Praying kind of people \u2013 Scott Kilborn<\/a><\/p>\n Some very good words in this number.<\/p>\n 13. I`m a poor rich man \u2013 The Gospel Plowboys<\/a><\/p>\n Many people seem to sing this song.<\/p>\n 14. I`m a poor rich man \u2013 Happy Goodmans<\/a><\/p>\n 15. I`m a poor rich man \u2013 Happy Goodmans `live`<\/a><\/p>\n 16. I`m a poor rich man \u2013 The Davis Family `live<\/a><\/p>\n 17. I`m a poor rich man \u2013 Jeff and Sheri Easter `live`<\/a><\/p>\n A very good performance.<\/p>\n 18. Poor rich man \u2013 The Cathedrals<\/a><\/p>\n 19. I\u2019m a poor rich man \u2013 Master\u2019s Messengers \u201clive\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n 20. Poor rich man \u2013 Bluegrass Revival and Malinda<\/a><\/p>\n 21. If Jesus said it, I believe it \u2013 Patsy Sullivan<\/a><\/p>\n I had a tape of Bud and Darlene Chambers singing this gospel song, so I presume he wrote it. There was another song I heard them sing that I still love and sing. It goes like this: “You ask me why I’m thankful, and why I sing and shout. You ask me why I’m thankful when this world’s full of doubt. You ask me what it is that makes me feel this way, I found it at an altar when I began to pray.”<\/p>\n 22. If Jesus said it, I believe it \u2013 Happy Goodmans<\/a><\/p>\n In about 1973 a friend got me in to sing at the South African Council of Churches meeting in the big Methodist Church in Downtown Durban, and I sang his song “Jesus Man.” It looked like there was going to be a riot. Every time I came to the chorus of the song about 600 African preachers stood up shouting and holding up their fists. I never did figure out if they liked the song or if they hated it. I don’t think the organizers liked it. They didn’t let me “loose” again!<\/p>\n There were so many of his songs that I sang and they were such a great blessing to me. I think of songs like “Among the sinners, News from Vietnam, Devil’s detour, Serve the Lord with gladness, We’re gonna have a time tonight.”<\/p>\n I notice that there isn’t much on the internet regarding Brother Chambers, and the other week I felt I should share some of the songs I can remember, but I got lazy to start typing. So this morning I got motivated, and will share the words of two songs that I hope I have remembered correctly. I hope his family doesn’t mind, but his songs were such a blessing to me, that I want his songs to be a blessing to other people too. I could sing them on the YouTube, but I might get in trouble. Anyway, here are two songs I just typed from memory of about 40 years ago:<\/p>\n SERVE THE LORD<\/p>\n 1. There\u2019s a million broken homes, a million broken hearts,<\/p>\n A million shattered plans, dreams torn apart.<\/p>\n A\u00a0 million people cry, a million lonely nights,<\/p>\n But as for me and my house, we\u2019ll always serve the Lord.<\/p>\n Chorus<\/p>\n Serve the Lord with gladness, serve Him with a cheerful heart.<\/p>\n Serve Him when old Satan tries to tear your little home apart.<\/p>\n Serve Him when the going gets rough, serve Him when the times are hard.<\/p>\n As for me and my house, we\u2019ll always serve the Lord.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2. There\u2019s a million wicked men, and evil women too.<\/p>\n Who try to justify all t the sinful things they do.<\/p>\n They may laugh at me, when I preach God\u2019s word.<\/p>\n But as for me and my house, we\u2019ll always serve the Lord.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n AMONG THE SINNERS<\/p>\n 1. We\u2019ve waited for the sinner man to step inside our church.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve waited for the preacher man to do all the work,<\/p>\n But we\u2019ve failed this generation, not giving them salvation,<\/p>\n Let\u2019s take Jesus where the sinners are.<\/p>\n Chorus<\/p>\n Let\u2019s take Jesus out among the sinners.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s take Jesus where the sinners are.<\/p>\n Can\u2019t you see that they are dying, for the Bread of life they\u2019re starved.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s take Jesus, where the sinners are.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2. We\u2019ve waited for the younger man to step inside our church.<\/p>\n To trim his hair, and change his clothes, and stop that endless search.<\/p>\n But thousands of teenagers are bound by Satan\u2019s chains,<\/p>\n If the teenager won\u2019t come to church, let\u2019s take the church to him.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 3. We\u2019ve waited for the heathen man to leave his heathen gods.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve always said the if he\u2019s saved, it\u2019s someone else\u2019s job<\/p>\n To lead him to a little mission church, and Jesus\u2019 way explain,<\/p>\n But if the heathen man won\u2019t come to Christ, then let\u2019s take Christ to him.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 4. We\u2019ve waited for the wicked man to leave his wicked ways.<\/p>\n To come right inside our church, and kneel down and pray.<\/p>\n But he\u2019s facing eternity without a helping hand,<\/p>\n Let\u2019s take Jesus to that wicked man.<\/p>\n (I hope these songs will be a blessing to someone).<\/p>\n Last night a song came to my mind, and I notice this morning a couple of people looking at Bud Chamber’s songs. So I will try and type it from memory. I don’t even know if this is the right title, but here goes:<\/p>\n GOD’S PEOPLE ARE MOVING<\/p>\n 1. Abraham kept looking for a city,<\/p>\n whose builder and maker was God.<\/p>\n He traveled on when the journey was easy,<\/p>\n and he traveled when the journey was hard.<\/p>\n When he got\u00a0old, he was strong and bold,<\/p>\n kept looking for a city we’re told<\/p>\n And though he couldn’t see it with the natural eye,<\/p>\n He’ll see it in the bye and bye.<\/p>\n Chorus<\/p>\n O, God’s people are a moving people,<\/p>\n and we gotta keep moving on,<\/p>\n No matter how rough the road may be,<\/p>\n We gotta keep moving on.<\/p>\n We don’t care what the devil is doing,<\/p>\n All we know is we gotta keep moving<\/p>\n ‘Cause God’s people are a moving people<\/p>\n and we gotta keep moving on.<\/p>\n 2. Moses was a man who had a vision<\/p>\n of that beautiful Promised Land<\/p>\n He said: “Come on children we gotta get moving,<\/p>\n get away from Pharoah’s hand.”<\/p>\n Well the journey was hard and the people got tired,<\/p>\n but they had to keep moving on.<\/p>\n When Moses died, Joshua cried:<\/p>\n “We are able, keep pressing on!”<\/p>\n Here is another song I have on another website featuring soldier songs. I used to sing this song, but changed the words to fit into the African situation. I also met a guy who lost his son to a landmine on his way back from Angola.<\/p>\n NEWS FROM VIETNAM<\/p>\n I heard the news about the war today from Vietnam.<\/p>\n They say the fighting was much lighter in that far and distant land.<\/p>\n There were three separate bombings on the northern battle land.<\/p>\n Three soldiers lost their lives,\u00a0out of three one was mine.<\/p>\n (Chorus)<\/p>\n They still say the war is cold, and we\u2019re winning every day,<\/p>\n but so many have been wounded and there are thousands in their graves.<\/p>\n It\u2019s not so bad to lose one soldier when so many have to die,<\/p>\n but today things are different, one soldier boy is mine. He was so young and so happy, when he left one year ago.<\/p>\n He bade the family all goodbye, but little did we know.<\/p>\n It would be the last farewell for a soldier brave and kind.<\/p>\n Yes, today thing are different, one soldier boy is mine.<\/p>\n Her’s another song that is a great blessing to me, and I am typing from memory, so please forgive me if I make mistakes with the words. I am not sure of the correct title.<\/p>\n THANKFUL<\/p>\n 1. You ask me why I’m thankful\u00a0and why I sing and shout,<\/p>\n You ask me why I’m thankful\u00a0when this world’s full of doubt,<\/p>\n You ask me what it is that makes me feel this way,<\/p>\n I found it at an altar\u00a0when I began to pray.<\/p>\n Chorus<\/p>\n And that is why I’m thankful, that’s why I sing and shout,<\/p>\n God put something in my heart that I can shout about,<\/p>\n Thankful because He heard my prayer\u00a0and answered it one day,<\/p>\n Thankful because He saved me in\u00a0that good old fashioned way.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2. They tell me of a man who walked\u00a0the shores of Galilee,<\/p>\n They tell me that He had the power to cause the blind to see,<\/p>\n They also said He had the power to cause the dumb to talk,<\/p>\n He also said unto the lame: “Take up thy bed and walk!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This morning on one of my websites someone was looking for “Evangelist Bud Chambers” which inspired me to do this section.
