There is a fountain filled with blood
The blood of our
mining men so brave
Who worked together in the black coal pits
Men who dug each other's
graves
Burden pattern: Men who dug each other's graves, O Lord,
Men who
dug each other's graves.
Who worked together in the black coal pits
Men who dug each other's graves.
There is a fountain filled with tears
The
tears of our children and our wives
The widows and orphans of mining men
Who so
senselessly have died
There is a river filled with blood
That once ran so beautiful
and grand
'Til the strip)miners tore down our mountainside
Now it runs brown with the
blood of our land
There is a fountain filled with blood
The blood of our brave
mining men
Let us stand beneath its powerful flood
Be revived to fight and to
win.
written by Joan Boyd
From the singing of Helen Schneyer,
recorded on "On
the Hallelujah Line", Folk Legacy records
Tune: "Fountain filled with blood," traditional
hymn,
written or transcribed by Lowell Mason, found in many hymn books
