Look out for me I’m coming too,
When the gen’ral roll is call’d
We’ll be there.
We’ll be there, we’ll be there, we’ll be there,
When the gen’ral roll is call’d we’ll be there.
We’re pressing on to Canaan’s land,
We’ll join the blood-wash’d pilgrim band.
Then we’ll go up the shining way,
And praise the Lord through endless day.
The tune is attributed, in the Revivalist, to J. Baker. Two negro spirituals based melodically and textually on this song are in Dett, pp. 121 and 166.
