about

Words and music attributed to Berryman Hicks (1778-1839) or William Walker (1809-1875). First published in the Southern Harmony. Our arrangement mostly follows Allison Blake Steel's (published in the Shenandoah Harmony), which she says "owes a lot of credit to my friend Tim Eriksen."

lyrics

The time is swiftly rolling on
When I must faint and die,
My body to the dust return
And there forgotten lie.

My loving wife, my bosom friend,
The object of my love,
The time's been sweet I've spent with thee,
My sweet and harmless dove.

Though I must now depart from you
Let not this grieve your heart,
For you will shortly come to me
Where we shall never part.
