WORDS BY WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT. MUSIC BY G. R. POULTON.

Moderato.

1. We are coming, Father Abram, three hundred thousand more, From Mississippi's winding stream, and from New England's

4

shore; We leave our plows and workshops, our wives and children dear, With hearts too full for utterance, with but a silent tear.

CHORUS.

Tenor. Alto. 1. We dare not look behind us, but steadfastly before

Soprano. 2. And bay'nets in the sunlight gleams, and bands brave music

Bass. 3. And a farewell group stands weeping, at every cottage,

4. Six hundred thousand loyal men and true have gone before

5

We are coming, Father Abram, three hundred thousand more!

pour; We are &c.

door; We are coming, Father Abram, three hundred thousand and more!

We are, & c.

2. If you look across the hill-tops that meet the northern sky, Long moving lines of rising dust your vision may descry; And now the wind, an instant, tears the cloudy veil aside, And floats aloft our spangled flag in glory and in pride. Chorus--And bay'nets in the sunlight gleam, and bands brave music pour--We are coming, Father Abram--three hundred thousand more!

3. If you look all up our valleys, where the growing harvests shine, You may see our sturdy farmer-boys fast forming into line; And children from their mothers' knees are pulling at the weeds, And learning how to reap and sow, against their country's needs; Chorus--And a farewell group stands weeping at every cottage door--We are coming, Father Abram--three hundred thousand more!

4. You have called us, and we're coming, by Richmond's bloody tide, To lay us down for Freedom's sake, and brother's bones beside; Or from foul Treason's savage grasp to wrench the murderous blade, And in the face of foreign foes its fragments to parade. Chorus--Six hundred thousand loyal men and true have gone before--We are coming, Father Abram--three hundred thousand more.
