Hark From the Tomb

Cat. #0240 (MFH #244) - As sung by Arlie Lynch, Rogers, Arkansas on August 13, 1958

VERSE 1
Hark, from th tomb
A doeful sound
My ears attend th cry
Ye, loving men
Come view th ground
Where you must shortly lie
Where you must shortly lie
Ye, loving men
Come view th ground
Where you must shortly lie

VERSE 2
Great God, is this
Our certain doom
And are we still secure
Still walking downward
To th tomb
And yet, prepared no more
And yet, prepared no more
Still walking downward
To th tomb
And yet, prepared no more
