On the slope of the hill.
And there though my body
Lies wrapped in green sod,
My spirit will go
To the keeping of God;
Till Gabriel’s last trumpet
Shall blow loud and shrill,
May I sleep ’neath the woods
On the slope of the hill.
On the slope of the hill.
And there though my body
Lies wrapped in green sod,
My spirit will go
To the keeping of God;
Till Gabriel’s last trumpet
Shall blow loud and shrill,
May I sleep ’neath the woods
On the slope of the hill.
