We are going down the valley one by one
With our faces tow'rd the setting of the sun
Down the valley where the mournful cypress grows
Where the stream of death in silence onward flows
We are going down the valley
Going down the valley
Going tow'rd the setting of the sun
We are going down the valley
Going down the valley
Going down the valley one by one
We are going down the valley one by one
When the labors of the weary day are done
One by one, the cares of earth forever past
We shall stand upon the river brink at last
| |
We are going down the valley one by one
Human comrade you or I will there have none
But a tender hand will guide us lest we fall
Christ is going down the valley with us all
We are going down the valley one by one
Yet before the shadowed vale may come the dawn
When with rapture we shall gather in the sky
"We shall be changed," but some shall never die!
