lies a mould'ring in the grave (3 vv.) But his soul's marching on |

Rit. |
Glory glory Halleluja (3 vv.) |
|
His soul is marching on |

| He captured Harper's Ferry with his nineteen men so true, | |
| And he frightened old Virginia till she trembled through and through | |
| They hung him for a traitor, themselves the traitor crew, | |
|
But his soul's marching on |
