I have only one copy of one page out of the hymnal in a Book of Remembrance. So I would love to mention which year and all, but I don't know. It was hymn #39. I planned on uploading a photo of the page, if you can give me a few days to scan it in and all. Since my great-great-great grandfather wrote it, I'm pretty sure I have rights to put it on the internet if I want to, right?

Sabbath Morning Comes with Gladness
Which hymnal did you copy the lyrics from? Please mention the year it was published as well, since it's good to make sure there aren't any legal issues. I know the hymn is public domain, but you never know if the newer hymnals add things that they consider copyrightable (although it's probably not a problem if they didn't do too much—but still, a public domain source is preferable; I believe I have one for these lyrics; so, I can make sure they're like those, if your source isn't public domain). Let me know. Thanks! Veramet 04:45, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
