Ambrose & His Orchestra - My Prayer

My Prayer (m. Georges Boulanger, w. Jimmy Kennedy)
Benjamin Baruch Ambrose (15 September 1896 -- 11 June 1971), known professionally as Ambrose or Bert Ambrose, was an English bandleader and violinist. Ambrose became the leader of a highly acclaimed British dance band, Bert Ambrose & His Orchestra, in the 1930s. (Wikipedia: tinyurl.com/pg8... )
The song was originally written as an instrumental piece with the title "Avant de Mourir" by Boulanger and first recorded by Orchester Georges Boulanger in 1924. English lyrics were added by Irish songwriter and lyricist Jimmy Kennedy* in 1939. Glenn Miller and the Ink Spots had large hits with their 1939 recordings, but the most commercially successful cover was that by The Platters, recorded in 1956.
