Alexander's Ragtime Band
[1st verse:]
- Oh, ma
honey
- Oh, ma honey
- Better hurry and let's meander
- Ain't you goin'
- Ain't you goin'
- To the leaderman, ragged meter man?
- Oh, ma honey
- Oh, ma honey
- Let me take you to Alexander's grandstand, brass band
- Ain't you comin' along?
- Oh, ma honey
- Come on
and hear
- Come on and hear
- Alexander's ragtime band
- Come on and hear
- Come on and hear
- It's the best band in the land
- They can play a bugle call like you never heard before
- So natural that you want to go to war
- That's just the bestest band what am, honey lamb
- Come on along
- Come on along
- Let me take you by the hand
- Up to the man
- Up to the man
- Who's the leader of the band
- And if you care to hear the Swanee River played in ragtime
- Come on and hear
- Come on and hear
- Alexander's ragtime band
- Come on and hear
- Oh, ma
honey
- Oh, ma honey
- There's a fiddle with notes that screeches
- Like a chicken
- Like a chicken
- And the clarinet is a colored pet
- Come and listen
- Come and listen
- To a classical band what's peaches
- Come now, somehow
- Better hurry along
- Oh, ma honey
Nearer My God to Thee
- Nearer,
my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee!
- E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me;
- Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee,
- Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee!
- Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,
- Darkness be over me, my rest a stone;
- Yet in my dreams I'd be Nearer, my God, to Thee,
- Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee!
- There let the way appear Steps unto heaven;
- All that Thou sendest me in mercy given;
- Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to Thee,
- Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee!
- Then, with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise,
- Our of my stony griefs, Bethel I'll raise;
- So by my woes to be Nearer, my God, to Thee!
- Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee!
- Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky,
- Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I fly,
- Still all my song shall be Nearer, my God, to Thee,
- Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee!
- E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me;
Eternal Father, Strong To Save
- Eternal
father, strong to save,
- Whose arm hath bound the restless wave,
- Who bid'st the mighty ocean deep
- It's own appointed limits keep;
- O hear us when we cry to thee,
- For those in peril on the sea.
- O Christ, the lord of hill and plain
- O'er which our traffic runs amain,
- By mountain pass or valley low,
- Wherever lord thy brethren go;
- Protect them by thy guardian hand
- From every peril on the land.
- O spirit, whom the father send
- To spread aboard the firmament;
- O wind of heaven, by the might,
- Save all who dare the eagle's flight;
- And keep them by thy watchful care
- From every peril in the air.
- O trinity of love and power!
- Our brethren shield in danger's hour
- From rock and tempest, fire and foe,
- Protect them wheresoe'er they go;
- Thus ever more shall rise to thee,
- Glad hymns of praise from land to sea .
- Whose arm hath bound the restless wave,
