What is this ol'school song? Driving me crazy! LOL

Okay, I was groovin' (showing my age here) on this 12/8 blues-gospel song "The Lord will make a Way"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSAphQ56SsY&feature=related

and this put me in mind of another song that I first heard in the late 60's though I'm pretty sure it's older, maybe from the 1940's-50's. All the words I can remember is the hook "Oh, how I love-- this Man of Galilee!"

     I remember more of the music, it has the same feel as the video, but different chords and tune. I've searched YouTube and tried Googling the title; came up with several songs but none of them were it. I thought it was maybe a Doris Akers tune but did not find it on the list at the Manna music website.

Anybody else remember this?

I searched too and I checked my hymnals and I couldn't find it.  I'll keep looking.  It seems to ring a bell.

Maybe it's:

There's a name that's dear to me,
lifted me from misery,
brought me out of sin and shame,
how i love that precious name.
It's grows sweeter, everyday
Knowing Jesus really pays,
Oh how I love that man,
From Galilee.

Sweet Jesus - fellowship devine
Sweet Jesus - I'm His and He is mine
Sweet Jesus - a precious friend is He
Sweet Jesus.
Whenever I'm in need - oh
Fellowship devine
I'm His and He is mine
A precious friend is He
Whenever I'm in need - oh
How I love this man from Galilee.


Sang this song many, many, many years ago - I kind of think it was a Doris Akers number.

Hope this is it and that it helps!

Blessings!

Yes, I think that's it - thanks!
Tried looking it up under "Doris Akers" and "Audrey Mieir" lyrics, but couldn't find it....
