|
Born: April 21, 1856, near Medford, New Jersey.

Oatman attended Herbert's Academy in Vincentown, New Jersey, and the New Jersey Collegiate Institute in Bordentown. He was ordained as a Methodist Episcopal minister, but his pastoral work was confined to local churches, as he worked full time in the retail and insurance industries. He wrote lyrics for 5,000 Gospel songs.

Higher Ground I Will Trade the Old Cross for a Crown The Last Mile of the Way No Not One
