THERE'S A MEETING HERE TO-NIGHT (Fisk Jubilee Singers Version)

Refrain:
Get you ready, there's a meeting here to-night,
Come along, there's a meeting here to-night;
I know you by your daily walk,
There's a meeting here tonight.
1.
Camp-meeting down in the wilderness,
There's a meeting here to-night;
I know it's among the Methodists,
There's a meeting here to-night.
2.
Those angels wings are tipped with gold,
There's a meeting here tonight;
That brought glad tidings to my soul,
There's a meeting here tonight.
3.
My father says it is the best, etc.
To live and die a Methodist, etc.
4.
I'm a Methodist bred and a Methodist born, etc.
And when I'm dead there's a Methodist gone, etc.
