No. 109. Gideon's Band


Oh, the band of Gideon, band of Gideon,
  band of Gideon, over in Jordan,
Band of Gideon, band of Gideon,
  How I long to see that day.
Oh, the milk-white horses, milk-white horses,
  milk-white horses, over in Jordan,
Milk-white horses, milk-white horses,
  How I long to see that day.


1. Duet.—I hail to my sister, my sister she bow low,
         Say, don't you want to go to heaven?
           How I long to see that day.
Chorus.—Oh, the twelve white horses, twelve white horses,
           Twelve white horses, over in Jordan,
         Twelve white horses, twelve white horses,
           How I long to see that day.
         Oh, hitch 'em to the chariot, hitch 'em to the chariot,
           Hitch 'em to the chariot, over in Jordan,
         Hitch 'em to the chariot, hitch 'em to the chariot,
           How I long to see that day.
