“O, blow your trumpet, Gabriel,
Blow your trumpet louder ;
And I want dat trumpet to blow me home
To my new Jerusalem.

“De prettiest ting dat ever I done
Was to serve de Lord when I was young.
So blow your trumpet, Gabriel.

“O, Satan is a liar, and he conjure too,
And if you don’t mind, he ‘ll conjure you.
So blow your trumpet, Gabriel.

“O, I was lost in de wilderness,
King Jesus hand me de candle down.
So blow your trumpet, Gabriel”.
