Representative Text

1 Oh, we're a band of brethren dear,
I belong to this band, hallelujah!
Who live as pilgrim strangers here,
I belong to this band, hallelujah!

Refrain:
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
I belong to this band, hallelujah!

2 The Prophets, and Apostles, too,
Did belong to this band, hallelujah!
And all God's children here below
Do belong to this band, hallelujah! [Refrain]

3 King David on his throne of state,
Did belong to this band, hallelujah!
And Lazarus at the rich man’s gate,
Did belong to this band, hallelujah! [Refrain]

4 I hope to meet my brethren there,
They belong to this band, hallelujah!
Who often joined with me in prayer,
They belonged to this band, hallelujah! [Refrain]
