    One of my favorite gospel songs by Elvis!
    The lyrics resonate with me, when you think how the little things we say or do in our everyday life, can impact negatively on someone else, without us even knowing. Elvis sings this with great humility & the tone of his voice gives me chills everytime.
    Happy that you liked it too Seph 👍😊❤

    One of my favorite Elvis gospels.
    Here are the lyrics:
    If I have wounded any soul today, If I have caused one foot to go astray
    If I have walked in my own willful way, Dear Lord, forgive
    Forgive the sins I have confessed to Thee, Forgive my secret sins I do not see
    Oh guide, watch over me and my keeper be
    Dear Lord, forgive

    3rd Comment: Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (August 18, 1856 - September 14, 1932) was an American composer and lyricist of gospel songs and gospel tunes. He is said to have written and/or composed between 7,000 and 8,000 songs, many of which are available in 21st century hymnals. He used several pseudonyms, including Charlotte G. Homer, H. A. Henry, and S. B. Jackson.
    Charles Hutchinson Gabriel was born in Wilton, Muscatine County, Iowa on August 18, 1856 and raised on a farm. His father led singing schools in their home, and young Charles developed an interest in music. It is said that he taught himself to play the family's reed organ.[2] Even though he never had any formal training in music, he began to travel and lead his own shape note singing schools in various locations around the age of 17.
    His musical talent was well recognized in his boyhood home of Wilton. There is one folklore story, that the pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Wilton (Pastor Pollock or McAulay) once saw Gabriel walking in town early in the week. He asked Gabriel if he knew a good song to go along with his sermon. The pastor shared the sermon topic and by the end of the week the boy had written a song for that Sunday, words and music. The Rev. N. A. McAulay was a pastor at the Wilton church for many years, and it is also said that young Gabriel wrote the music for one of McAulay's songs. The song, "How Could it Be," was later published in Songs for Service, edited by Gabriel, with the music being credited to "Charles H. Marsh," possibly one of Gabriel's pseudonyms.
    Eventually he served as music director at Grace Methodist Episcopal Church, San Francisco, California (1890-2). While working at Grace Church, he was asked to write a song for a mission celebration. He wrote "Send the Light", which became his first commercial song. He moved to Chicago, Illinois, and in 1912 he began working with Homer Rodeheaver's publishing company.
    Gabriel was married twice, first to Fannie Woodhouse, which ended in divorce, and later to Amelia Moore. One child was born to each marriage.
    He died in Hollywood, California on September 14, 1932, aged 76. Gabriel wrote an autobiography titled Sixty Years of Gospel Song (Chicago, Illinois: Hope Publishing Company, undated).
    He was inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in 1982.

    The Lyrics:
    If I have wounded some poor soul today
    If I have caused one foot to go astray
    If I have walked in my own willful way
    Dear Lord, forgive
    If I have uttered idle words in vain
    If I have turned aside from want or pain
    Lest I offend some other through the strain
    Dear Lord, forgive
    Forgive the sins I have confessed to Thee
    Forgive the secret sins I do not see
    Oh, guide me, love me, and my keeper be
    Dear Lord, forgive

    Dear Lord forgive
    Forgive a sin I have confessed to Thee
    Forgive my secret sins I do
    Oh God watch over me and my misery
    Dear Lord, help me
    - written by C. Maude Battersby & Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (1856- 1932).
    While I did find info on Mr. Gabriel, I found really nothing about Ms. Battersby.
    Almost nothing apparently is known about her except that it is believed that she penned the lyrics to "An Evening Prayer" sometime around 1895.
    Charles. H. Gabriel was the composer of this tune and was apparently a *prolific* Gospel songwriter. (It's believed he wrote anywhere between 7,000- 8,000 Gospel songs within his lifetime).
    "An Evening Prayer" was originally recorded by Homer Rodeheaver on September 10, 1913.
    This song has since been covered by 27 artists in total.
    Recording session info & more will be in separate comments 😀👍

      I dunno. One of the most covered songs ever (and yes Elvis covered it too but not until 1977 so you got a ways to go) has been covered 600+ times total since it's debut in 1955 (in a movie no less; but it would become a timeless classic after Bobby Hatfield of The Righteous Brothers covered it as a solo recording in either 1964 or 1965. Can't recall the exact year at the moment.)

    Eight hours into a recording session that started at 6 pm on May 19th, 1971, in Nashville, Elvis is sitting alone at the piano at 2 o'clock in the morning singing one of his favorites: Ivory Joe Hunter's "It's Still Here". He's been playing this for years at home planning to record it Sometime. This night, and understanding the magic of the moment, producer Felton Jarvis turns on the tape machine...........
