Alfred Marcus Cagle (October 5, 1884 – December 19, 1968) was an American hymnwriter known for his activities with the Sacred Harp movement.
[1] Called "the territory’s preeminent singer, leader, and keyer of music", he would return to Cullman regularly for singings even after having moved from the area in 1937.
He also keyed many singings, and may be heard in this role on a recording of the 1959 United Convention which took place in Fyffe, Alabama.
[1] He remained active in the Sacred Harp movement until his death, discussing matters of tempo[3] and pitching for singings with various writers.
[1] His cousin Ida was the wife of Sacred Harp composer Lee Andrew McGraw.
