    No I dobn't own one. I went to visist in a church one evening and these were in the vestiview. I was truly blesssed just turning the pages and being reminded of my heritage and songs my Grandmother used to sing. I would love own one and maybe even encourage my Pastor to make them available in my place of worship. thank you!

    Yes, my church choir has been using it for several years now. Excellent!! I attended the Hampton Univ. Ministers' Conference years ago and purchased several to take back to the choir. Another good songbook is Zion Still Sings; it also has mostly contemporary gospel songs.

    "Wade in the water", "Go Down Moses" are my school favorites (find that tiny Bulgaria on the world map, and know we sing spirituals in English schools here too:) Mrs Christina Kozhuharova is the name of my teacher- I find this amazing...Thanks for bringing wonderful memories back:)

    When I was a church music director (until about 4 years ago), we used the AAHH a lot. It's great! Thanks for doing the lens!

    We always sang Wade in the Water in camp. I don't think I have ever heard it sung by real singers and properly! I look forward to that.
