Good Lord, in de manshans above, Good Lord, in de manshans above,
My Lord, I hope to meet my Jesus In de manshans above.

If you get to heaven before I do, Lord, tell my Jesus I'm acomin' too,
To de manshans above.

My Lord, I've had many crosses an' trials here below;
My Lord, I hope to meet you
In de manshans above.

Fight on, my brudder, for de manshans above,
For I hope to meet my Jesus dere
In de manshans above.
