| [00:12.065] | We are coming, Father Abraham, 300,000 more, |
| [00:17.133] | From Mississippi's winding stream and from New England's shore. |
| [00:22.162] | We leave our plows and workshops, our wives and children dear, |
| [00:26.916] | With hearts too full for utterance, with but a silent tear. |
| [00:31.665] | We dare not look behind us but steadfastly before. |
| [00:36.408] | We are coming, Father Abraham, 300,000 more! |
| [00:41.447] | We are coming, coming our Union to restore, |
| [00:46.763] | We are coming, Father Abraham, 300,000 more! |
| [00:56.257] | If you look across the hilltops that meet the northern sky, |
| [01:01.286] | Long moving lines of rising dust your vision may descry; |
| [01:06.320] | And now the wind, an instant, tears the cloudy veil aside, |
| [01:11.065] | And floats aloft our spangled flag in glory and in pride; |
| [01:15.820] | And bayonets in the sunlight gleam, and bands brave music pour, |
| [01:20.575] | We are coming, father Abr'am, three hundred thousand more! |
| [01:25.604] | We are coming, coming our Union to restore, |
| [01:30.350] | We are coming, Father Abraham, 300,000 more! |
| [01:40.139] | If you look up all our valleys where the growing harvests shine, |
| [01:45.186] | You may see our sturdy farmer boys fast forming into line; |
| [01:49.953] | And children from their mother's knees are pulling at the weeds , |
| [01:54.986] | And learning how to reap and sow against their country's needs; |
| [01:59.457] | And a farewell group stands weeping at every cottage door, |
| [02:04.213] | We are coming, Father Abr'am, three hundred thousand more! |
| [02:08.960] | We are coming, coming our Union to restore, |
| [02:14.273] | We are coming, Father Abraham, 300,000 more! |
| [02:23.774] | You have called us, and we're coming by Richmond's bloody tide, |
| [02:28.812] | To lay us down for freedom's sake, our brothers' bones beside; |
| [02:33.840] | Or from foul treason's savage group, to wrench the murderous blade; |
| [02:38.314] | And in the face of foreign foes its fragments to parade. |
| [02:43.070] | Six hundred thousand loyal men and true have gone before, |
| [02:47.829] | We are coming, Father Abraham, 300,000 more! |
| [02:52.592] | We are coming, coming our Union to restore, |
| [02:57.622] | We are coming, Father Abraham, 300,000 more! |
| [03:02.378] | We are coming, coming our Union to restore, |
| [03:07.685] | We are coming, Father Abraham, 300,000 more! |
