Post The Royal Telephone Chicago27
Written by Fredrick Lehman in 1919. He also wrote the classic "The Love of God" in 1917. The first coast to coast telephone call was only 4 years before he wrote this.

Central’s never “busy,” always on the line;
You may hear from heaven almost any time;
’Tis a royal service, free for one and all;
When you get in trouble, give this royal line a call.
Refrain:
Telephone to glory, oh, what joy divine!
I can feel the current moving on the line,
Built by God the Father for His loved and own,
We may talk to Jesus through this royal telephone.
There will be no charges, telephone is free,
It was built for service, just for you and me;
There will be no waiting on this royal line,
Telephone to glory always answers just in time.
Fail to get the answer, Satan’s crossed your wire,
By some strong delusion, or some base desire;
Take away obstructions, God is on the throne,
And you’ll get your answer through this royal telephone.
If your line is “grounded,” and connection true
Has been lost with Jesus, tell you what to do:
Prayer and faith and promise mend the broken wire,
Till your soul is burning with the Pentecostal fire.
Carnal combinations cannot get control
Of this line to glory, anchored in the soul;
Storm and trial cannot disconnect the line,
Held in constant keeping by the Father’s hand divine.
Friendly Face

Thanks for posting that. I have heard that song all my life and I believe that is the first time I have read 'all' the lyrics.

Funny even I know some of the early terms, but it is unique that the details used i.e. grounding, current, shorts, connections, etc. was very early to be understood by the average person at that time I would think.

Anyway I got a kick out of reviewing the words. Cool
