| lyric | 1. Sweetest sound I ever heard,
Way over on the hill,
Angels mourned and I mourned too,
Mourning with my sword in my hand,
Mourning with my sword in my hand.
Chorus:
O my bother, you got to be tried;
O my borther, you got to be tried.
When you come to Judgement,you got to be tried
Ev’rybody living, hat got to be tried.
2. Sweetest song I ever heard, Way over on the hill
Angels sang and I sang too, Lord,
Singing with my sword in my hand.
O my sister you got to be tried, etc.
3. Sweetest pray’r I ever heard, Way over on the hill,
Angels prayed and I prayed too, Lord,
Praying with my sword in my hand.
O my borther you got to be tried
Ev’n th preacher has got to be tried
When you come to Judgement, etc. |
