WE WILL MARCH THROUGH THE STREETS OF THE CITY- Carter Family 1932

          We will march through the streets of the city
          With our loved ones gone before
          We will sit on the banks of the river
          Where we'll meet to part no more

    Jesus sought me when a stranger
    Wandering from the fold of God
    He to rescue me from danger
    And transported by his blood

    Come, thy fount of every blessing
    Do now hark to sing God's praise
    Streams of mercy never ceasing
    Calls for songs of loudest praise

          We will march through the streets of the city
          With our loved ones gone before
          We will sit on the banks of the river
          Where we'll meet to part no more
          [INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]

    Hark the voice of Jesus calling
    Who will go and work today
    Fields are white and harvest is waiting
    Who will bear the sheaves away

          Yes, we'll march through the streets of the city
          With our loved ones gone before
          We will sit on the banks of the river
          Where we'll meet to part no more
