The Ninety and Nine

The film opens with a lovely rendition of this traditional spiritual, sung by the immortal Burl Ives. I've only been able to find it on 'Burl Ives Sings Softly and Tenderly Hymns & Spirituals,' but it's a later recording, totally different arrangement (terrible, in my opinion). According to the link from this web page, there was never a soundtrack issued for this film. Does anyone out there have any idea where I can find a recording of the rendition of this song as heard on the film's soundtrack? Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
