Haven of Rest

Описание: This song was written by Henry Lake Gilmour of the United Kingdom. 1836-1920.
Born at Londonderry, Ireland, he emigrated to America as a teenager, thinking he wanted to learn navigation. When he reached the U.S., he arrived in Philadelphia and decided to seek his fortune in America. He started working as a painter, then served in the American Civil War, where he was captured and spent several months in Libby Prison, Richmond, VA. He married Letitia Pauline Howard in 1858. After the war he trained as a dentist and did that for many years. In 1869 he moved to Wenonah, NJ, and helped found the Methodist church there in 1885. He served as Sunday school superintendent and, for four decades, directed the choir at the Pittman Grove Camp Meeting, also working as song leader at camp meetings in Mountain Lake Park, MD, and Ridgeview Park, PA.

This Youtube recording is a tribute to the Southern Gospel Pianist - Pansy Stallings who passed away in November 2020. She had a piano ministry that started at a very young age and began playing for church at the age of 6. She played for many different gospel groups as well as various churches throughout her life.
The social media platform of Facebook, gave her an opportunity to share her God-gifted talent to people across the world. She would also share her gift if she found a piano in random places. She would sit down and play; be it at a music store, a hospital, hotel lobby, cruise ship or restaurant. She shared her gift with everyone that would listen. She touched lives near and far with her gift.
