l heard song of Saints in Heaven
Singing softly. singing low
And to me man twas given
The secret OF the song to know.
@ those voices. how they trembled
Sweetly. softly on the air
AS the Saints that Day assembled
Made me wish that | were there.
AS l listened full Of rapture.
TO that song SO full and free
My very soul il seemed to capture
AS it tioated down to me.
Then | turned and said to Satan
AS | felt him crouching near
Depart from me with all your hatin'
For these things Saints hold so dear.
And | heard him madly crashing
TO the regions down below
His tail against his sides alaShing
That's the way heard him go.
But l wondered why he left me
To my comfort and my ease
Why 50 hastily to flee
Il awoke to find was on my knees.O
If you'd do the Fathers will
And the Father you would please
| don't believe You will until
You learn to pray upon your knees.
You talk about me all you please
Ill talk about you on my knees. 1t
