The Sacred Harp ‎#201

201. Come, all ye mourning pilgrims dear

Come, all ye mourning pilgrims dear,
Who’re bound for Canaan’s land,
Take courage and fight valiantly,
Stand fast with sword in hand,
Our Captain’s gone before us,
Our Father’s only Son,
Then, pilgrims dear, pray do not fear,
But let us follow on.
