Oh, the band of Gideon, band of Gideon, band of Gideon, over in Jordan,
Band of Gideon, band of Gideon,
How I long to see that day.
Oh, the milk-white horses, milk-white horses, milk-white horses, over in Jordan,
Milk-white horses, milk-white horses,
How I long to see that day.

Hitch 'em to the chariot, hitch 'em to the chariot,
How I long to see that day.
