samuel coleridge-taylor - loud he sang the psalm of david lyrics

Loading...

loud he sang the psalm of david!
he, a negro and enslaved
sang of israel’s victory
sang of zion, bright and free

in that hour, when night is calmest
sang he of the hebrew psalmist
in a voice so sweet and clear
that i could not choose but hear

and the voice of his devotion
filled my soul with strange emotion;
for its tones by turns were glad
sweetly solemn, wildly sad

paul and silas, in their prison
sang of christ, the lord arisen
and an earthquake’s arm of might
broke their dungeon+gates at night

but, alas! what holy angel
brings the slave this glad evangel?
and what earthquakе’s arm of might
breaks his dungeon+gates at night?
