THE VANCE SONG (snippet) Rev A M Lunsford 1897

But Vance no more shall Sandy behold
Nor smell it's sweet perfume
This day his eyes are closed in death
His body confined in the tomb

Farewell my friends, my children dear
To you I bid farewell
The love I have for your precious souls
No mortal tongue can tell

Farewell to you, my loving wife
To you I bid adieu
And, If I reach fair Canaans shore
I hope you've made the stew.
