Words and Music by N. B. Vandall “ After the toil and the heat of the : day, after my troubles are past. .. ” Thus begins a comparatively-recent gospel song which has already en- | joyed nationwide success. It was writ ten a few minutes after the author’s small son had been struck by an auto mobile and severely injured. Return ing from the hospital, Vandall fell on his knees and sobbed his heart out to God. Marvelously the Lord spoke words of comfort to his soul, assuring him that some day all sorrows would I be over. He arose from his knees, went to the piano, and, with tears co u r s i ng down his cheeks, wrote words and music to “After.” (The boy recovered.) N.B. “ Jack” Vandall’s mother died in his boyhood, leaving him with no sp i r i tua l influences, although he learned many years later that she had been an earnest Christian. After working at various jobs, he discovered an outlet for his musical abilities in cabarets and theatres. During World War I he served in the Marines, then became a business man in Akron, Ohio. Early in the 1920’s he was con verted in a Methodist campmeeting, soon thereafter forsaking the business world to enter the evangelistic field, — preaching, singing, writing songs, and broadcasting. Since 1940 he has made his home in Akron, where he carries on an intensive radio ministry, assisted by his wife (who was instru mental in leading him to Christ) and their four sons. Other compositions include “My Sins Are Gone,” “He’s The One I Love,” “Just One Glimpse,” “ I Know He Can Save Me, Too,” and “My Home Sweet Home.” The latter song was written during his early minis try; financial difficulties and other j obstacles tended to tempt him to return to the business career he had forsaken, — but in the crucial hour God assured him that faithful service would be rewarded by an eternal home. Came then the inspiration for “My Home Sweet Home.” Southern California residents and visitors are reminded of the special MUSICALES directed by Phil Kerr. Every Monday night at 7:30 P.M. in the Pasadena Civic Auditorium, and the second Sunday afternoon of each month in the new auditorium of the BIOLA Campus in La Mirada at 2:30 P.M. Always a rich inspiration in musical testimony.
