Nobody knows the trouble I see, Lord!

Swing Low, sweet Chariot.

Room Enough.

O Redeemed.

Roll, Jordan, Roll.

Turn back Pharaoh's Army.

Rise, Mourners.

From every Graveyard.

Children, we all shall be Free.

I'm a Rolling.

I'll hear the Trumpet Sound.

Didn't my Lord deliver Daniel.

I've just come from the Fountain.

Children, you'll be called on.

Give me Jesus.

Gwine to ride up in the Chariot.

We'll die in the Field.

Go down, Moses.

The Rocks and the Mountains.

Been a Listening.

Keep me from sinking Down.

I'm a trav'ling to the Grave.

Many thousand Gone.

Steal Away.
