Rock, Mt. Sinai,
Rock, Mt. Sinai,
Rock, Mt. Sinai, in that morning;
Rock, Mt. Sinai,
Rock, Mt. Sinai,
Rock, Mt. Sinai, in that morning.

1 When you see my coffin come,
Then you will know my race is run, O [Refrain]

This old earth rock and reel. [Refrain]

Died for you, died for me. [Refrain]

On you Heaven will rain fire. [Refrain]
