---

I’m-a goin’ to tell you ‘bout de comin’ of de Saviour
Fare you well, fare you well
I’m-a goin’ to tell you ‘bout de comin’ of de Saviour
Fare you well, fare you well
Dere’s a better day a-comin’
Fare you well, fare you well
Oh preacher, fol’ yo’ bible
Fare you well, fare you well
Prayer maker, pray no mo’
Fare you well, fare you well
For de last soul’s converted
Fare you well, fare you well
Dat de time shall be no longer
Fare you well, fare you well
For de judgment day is comin’
Fare you well, fare you well
Den you hear de sinner sayin’
Fare you well, fare you well
Down I’m rollin’, down I’m rollin’
Fare you well, fare you well
In dat great gittin’ up mornin’
Fare you well, fare you well
In dat great gittin’ up mornin’
Fare you well, fare you well

De Lord spoke to Gabriel
Fare you well, fare you well
Go, look behin’ de altar

Take down de silvah trumpet
Blow yo’ trumpet, Gabriel

Lord, how loud shall I blow it
Blow it right, calm an’ easy
Do not alarm my people
Tell ’em to come to judgment
Gabriel, blow yo’ trumpet
Lord how loud shall I blow it
Loud as seven peals of thunder
Wake de livin’ nations
Place one foot upon de dry land
Place de ther on de sea
Den you’ll see de coffin bustin’
See dedry bones come a-creepin’
In dat great gittin’ up mornin’
In dat great gittin’ up mornin’
Den you’ll see po’ sinners
Den you’ll see de worl’ in fiah
See de moon a-bleedin’
See de stars a-fallin’
See de elements a-meltin’
See de forked
Den you’ll cry out for cold water
While de Christians shout in glory
Sayin’ Amen to yo’ damnation
No mercy for po’ sinner
In dat great gittin’ up mornin’
In dat great gittin’ up mornin’
Hear de rumblin’ of de thunder
Earth shall reel an’ totter
Den you’ll see de Christians risin’
Den you’ll see de righteous marchin’
See dem marchin’ home to heab’n
Den you’ll see my home to glory
Wid all His holy angels
Take de righteous home to glory
Dere dey live wid God for ever
On de right hand side of my Saviour
In dat great gittin’ up mornin’
In dat great gittin’ up mornin’
