    can anyone help iloveJesus?
    होता है जो होना है ... वक़्त ही शायद खुदा है ...
    कौन कहता है आदमी अपनी किस्मत खुद लिखता है?

    I believe the original title of that song is called The Noisy Crew. How I came to love these pilgrims, is to me a great suprise. And how the Lord has led me is a wonder to mine eyes. I never thought i'd be one I had said it would never do, for i'd loose my reputation if i joined that noisy crew.

    I found these lyrics among my dad's belongings, after he passed. I do not know the artist, or the composer, or the poet:


    I AM ONE OF THEM TODAY
    1. How I came to love these pilgrims,
    Is to me a great surprise;
    And the way the Lord has led me,
    Is a wonder in my eyes;
    No, I never thought I’d be one,
    But I’m happy now to say,
    That, although I used to hate them,
    I am one of them today!
    [Refrain:]

    2. I feel constrained to say,
    I love this narrow way;
    O glory, hallelujah,
    I am one of them today.

    [Refrain]

    3. Well I knew the world despised them,
    So I said ‘twould never do;
    I would lose my reputation
    If I join that noisy crew;
    But I heard in Sinai’s thunder
    “You must surely go that way;”
    I am not ashamed to own it,
    I am one of them today.
    [Refrain]
    4. Oft I sneered when they were telling
    That they felt no foe within,
    That the grace of their Redeemer
    Daily kept them free from sin;
    But conviction seized my spirit,
    Took my hatred all away;
    I have found this great salvation,
    And I’m one of them today.
    [Refrain]
    5. It so shocked me that I could not
    All my indignation hide,
    When they said that God’s old Bible
    Never would endorse my pride;—
    Though high-headed, proud and haughty,
    Yet I heard the Spirit say,
    “Will you be a humble pilgrim?’
    And I’m one of them today.

    [Refrain]
    6. Once I thought that their demonstrations
    Were entirely out of place;
    That I never would consent to
    Bring upon me such disgrace;
    So I asked the Lord to bless me
    In a mild and careful way,—
    I broke through and got the glory,
    And I’m one of them today.
    [Refrain]
    7. I’m so glad I ever found them,
    For they’ve led me to the right;
    And I mean to stay among them,
    Daily walking in the light;
    Then some day I’ll join their number
    Over on the golden shore;
    It is settled, hallelujah!
    I’m a pilgrim evermore.
    [Refrain]
