No. 180 We’ll March Around Jerusalem, Rev 358
Heptatonic ionian, mode 3 A + b (I II III IV V VI VII)
O brethren, will you meet me
On that delightful shore?
O brethren, will you meet me
Where parting is no more?
And we’ll march around Jerusalem,
We’ll march around Jerusalem,
We’ll march around Jerusalem
When we arrive at home.
Subsequent stanzas use instead of brethren, sister, leader, preacher, young convert, and backslider, with the conclusion:
Yes, bless the Lord, I’ll meet you, etc.
The above tune, with some alterations, is found as a negro spiritual in Dett, p. 78.
