Nothing between my soul and the Savior,
Naught of this world’s delusive dream;
I have renounced all sinful pleasure;
Jesus is mine, there’s nothing between.
Naught of this world’s delusive dream;
I have renounced all sinful pleasure;
Jesus is mine, there’s nothing between.
Nothing between my soul and the Savior,
So that His blessed face may be seen;
Nothing preventing the least of His favor,
Keep the way clear! Let nothing between.
So that His blessed face may be seen;

Nothing between, like worldly pleasure;
Habits of life, though harmless they seem,
Must not my heart from Him e’er sever;
He is my all, there’s nothing between.
Habits of life, though harmless they seem,
Must not my heart from Him e’er sever;
He is my all, there’s nothing between.

Nothing between, like pride or station;
Self-life or friends shall not intervene;
Though it may cost me much tribulation,
I am resolved; there’s nothing between.
Self-life or friends shall not intervene;
Though it may cost me much tribulation,
I am resolved; there’s nothing between.

Nothing between, e’en many hard trials,
Though the whole world against me convene;
Watching with prayer and much self-denial,
I’ll triumph at last, with nothing between.
Though the whole world against me convene;
Watching with prayer and much self-denial,
I’ll triumph at last, with nothing between.

Charles Albert Tinley was born in Maryland July 7th 1851. His father Chester was a slave and his mother Hester was free. Hester died when Charles was very young; he was taken in by his mother’s sister Caroline Robbins in order to keep his freedom. In his Book of Sermons he speaks of behind “hired out wherever father could place me” it seems he was expected to work for the family.
Charles married Daisy Henry when he was seventeen. They had eight children. Some whom later assisted him in publishing his hymns. Tindley educated himself. After he and Daisy moved to Philadelphia in 1875, he took correspondence courses towards becoming a Methodist minister while working as a grounds keeper. In 1902, he became a pastor at East Bainsbridge and the church grew rapidly. Then in 1924, he became a minister at the Tindley Temple where membership grew to ten thousand. He was known for his captivating preacher drawing multiple races to hear him speak.
His songs were published in A book called Soul Echoes and New Songs of Paradise. The songs were an outgrowth of his preaching ministry.
His wife Daisy died in 1924 and in 1927 he remarried Jenny Cotton. Tindley died July 26, 1933.
