Description: William Walker says "This song was composed by the Rev. B.

Jackson (1933, pp. 203-205) identifies the composer as Berryman Hicks, a Baptist preacher of South Carolina and Tennessee, 1778-1839. All agree that Hicks wrote the words; some musicians and historians believe he wrote the tune as well.
