Representative Text

1. Do you love the blessèd Savior
In the old time way?
Is your heart aglow with rapture
In the old time way?

Refrain
In the old time way,
In the old time way,
We must claim the old time blessing,
In the old time way.

2. Are you keeping close to Jesus
In the old time way?
Daily walking in His presence
In the old time way? [Refrain]

3. Have you made a full surrender
In the old time way?
Given all to follow Jesus
In the old time way? [Refrain]

4. Are you working for His kingdom
In the old time way?
Are you leading others to Him
In the old time way? [Refrain]

After attending a revival meeting by Reuben Torrey and Charles M. Alexander, Harkness became Alexander’s pianist. He came to Christ shortly thereafter (on a bicycle, he said), and made several round the world tours with Torrey and Alexander. Harkness was especially well known for his program The Music of the Cross, and as the author of correspondence courses in hymn playing. He wrote over 2,000 hymns and Gospel songs in his lifetime.
