Daniel And The Sacred Harp - The Band

Daniel Daniel and the sacred harp

Dancing through the clover

Daniel Daniel would you mind

If I look it over

I heard of this famous harp years ago back in

My home town

But I sure never thought old daniel be the one

To come and bring it around

Tell me Daniel how the harp came into your possession

Are you one of the chosen few who will march

In the procession

And Daniel said

The sacred harp was handed down from father unto son

And me not being related I could never be the

One

So I saved up all my silver and took it

To a man

Who said he could deliver the harp straight into my

Hand

Three years I waited patiently

Till he returned with the harp from the sea of

Galilee

He said there is one more thing I must ask

But not of personal greed

But I wouldn't listen I just grabbed the harp

And said take what you may need

Now Daniel looked quite satisfied and the harp it seemed

To glow

But the price that daniel had really paid he did

Not even know

Back to his brother he took his troubled mind

And he said dear brother I'm in a bind

But the brother would not hear his tale

He said old daniel's gonna land in jail

So to his father Daniel did run

And he said oh father what have I done

His father said son you've given in you know you

Won your harp

But you lost in sin

Then Daniel took the harp and went high on the

Hill

And he blew across the meadow like a whippoorwill

He played out his heart just the time to pass

But as he looked to the ground he noticed no

Shadow did he cast

Daniel Daniel and the sacred harp

Dancing through the clover

Daniel Daniel would you mind

If I look it over
