ELDER ALBERT JACKSON SIMS
Albert Jackson Sims was born in Jackson County Georgia on July 2, 1884. He passed away October 6, 1969.
He married Clara Jane Homer. To this union were born four children, Ruby, Joseph, Jean, and David. His wife died February 21, 1990.
Albert Jackson Sims was a man of great faith. He had a great memory. He once was asked why he had such a great memory to which he replied, “I do not know, but I know it was a gift from God.” But when
he went blind, he said that he knew then why God had given him this great gift of memory.
He taught music in many churches. He wrote the hymn, “Unseen Hand” in the 1930’s before he went blind. This song is sung in many churches today. Always, in times of trouble, he would go to the Bible where he always received comfort. He read the Bible daily before he went blind.

Is there a way for this to be transposed into a lower key?

A.J. Sims was my grandfather. His wife was a Thomas and not Homer. She was the daughter of Joseph and Ola Thomas.

The children were Ruby, Joseph, Jean, and David I believe. Ruby was my grandmother.

Thanks for your correction. I have sent in a correction to Free-Scores. It's nice to hear from a descendant of such a great Christian composer.

I'm not so sure about Joseph? I know they called him Jader, but I don't know his legal name. Jean's first name was Sarah. I named my daughter after her.

I remember my great grandmother Clara very well. She was a feisty little thing!
