Share my yoke and come the way that I must go! Your slightest movement I shall feel and be there too! Share my yoke and find that I am joined with you. When in my mind the thick grey folds of doubt arise,

When things I've counted on just do not come my way When I'm tired and nothing's going right for me Arranged by Ivor Bosanko as a trumpet solo, it has been recorded frequently, including by the Black Dyke Mills Band. One of her most famous post-Joystrings songs was "Share my Yoke". But God had decided that my life was to go off at a right angle and that the Salvation Army was going to pioneer the first use the Church in Great Britain would make of the Sixties music culture.’”Īfter the band split up in 1969, Joy continued composing. New approach to evangelism? We didn't really have any approach to evangelism and we most certainly did not have the music. “Joy recalled in her book Bridge Of Songs, ‘I waffled on about how the Army hoped to use this new approach to evangelism.

“The Joystrings were, for a blink in time's eye, a national phenomenon – a group of Salvation Army cadets who in 1964 made the national pop charts, appeared in full uniform on the groovy Ready, Steady, Go TV programme and were besieged by bemused newspaper journalists intrigued at the idea of a religious group playing ‘beat music’. Tony Cummings wrote in Cross Rhythms in 2003: Joy herself played guitar and keyboard, as well as singing. Joystrings released six singles, five EP’s and two LP’s. They caught the audience’s imagination and, following a second appearance, were signed to the EMI label Regal Zonophone (later associated with such performers as Procol Harum, Tyrannosaurus Rex and Joe Cocker). (Listen to the Joystrings perform "It's an open secret" on YouTube.)įounded in 1963, The Joystrings was a “Christian beat band”, formed specifically for an appearance on Cliff Michelmore's BBC Tonight television show and made up of Salvation Army cadets led by Joy. It's an open secret, I love my Saviour so! It's an open secret this gladness divine. Like other of Joy’s songs – including “When I’m feeling down…”, this combined a memorable melody with a strong expression of personal faith: They achieved UK chart success with On A Starry Night (StF 206) and "It's An Open Secret". The feedback was very positive – people really appreciated it.”Ĭaptain Joy Webb was one of the founders of a 1960s pop group The Joystrings, made up of members of the Salvation Army. “I introduced it as a prayer during worship and, as the tune was not familiar and the essence of the words was important, we listened to it read and then reflected while the tune was played. One Methodist local preacher contacted StF+ to say that, though “When I'm feeling down and sad” is not a song she would normally have picked for a service, it had been brought to her attention by a member who had found it helpful as she coped with bereavement. (Compare this with Rosemary Wakelin’s challenging The world we thought we knew is changing fast, published on StF+). This song/hymn speaks to many individuals, not least older church members, who feel that they are being overtaken by change and left on the sidelines, isolated and lonely.
