This
is
a
new
tune
composed
for
the
Fifth
Edition
of
the
Sacred
Harp
of
1911.
The
words
are
the
same
as
those
found
in
"Pilgrim's
Farewell."

in
Southern
Harmony

Wm.
Walker,

and

Also
see
Mercer's
Cluster,

Jesse
Mercer,

None
of
these
books
give
the
name
of
the
author
of
the
words.
It
is
believed
by
the
composer
that
the
above
tune
will
prove
itself
worthy
of
the
approbation
of
the
lovers
of
sacred
songs,
