African-American Spirituals and “Were You There” (#145)

As a fitting preparation to Easter tomorrow, Larry has provided another hymn study on the classic spiritual “Were You There”. Sharp eyed readers will realize that this hymn was already covered some time back.

This one contains some additional information, so we are putting it up here, but Larry expects to merge the two into one revision that I will post later.

For the time being, please enjoy them both:

Were You There (original)

Were You There (reprise)
