Daniel daniel and the sacred harp dancing through the clover

Daniel daniel would you mind if i look it over

I heard of this famous harp years ago back in my home town

But i sure never thought old daniel be the one to come and bring it around

Tell me daniel how the harp came in your possession.

Are you one of the chosen few who will march in the the procession?

And daniel said ?the sacred harp was handed down

From father unto son

And me not being related i could never be the one

So i saved up all my silver and took it to a man

Who said he could deliver the harp straight into my hand?

Three years i waited patiently

'till he returned with the harp from the sea of galilee

He said there is one more thing i must ask but not of personal greed

But i wouldn't listen i just grabbed the harp

And said take what you may need

Now daniel looked quite satisfied and the harp it seemed to glow

But the price that daniel had really paid he did not even know

Back to his brother he took his troubled mind

And he said dear brother i believe i'm in a bind

But the brother would not hear his tale

He said old daniel's gonna land in jail

So to his father daniel did run and he said oh father what have i done

His father said son you've given in you know you won your harp

But you lost in sin

And then daniel took the harp and went high on the hill

And he blew across the meadow like a whippoorwill

He played out his heart for the time to pass

But as he looked to the ground he noticed no shadow did he cast

Daniel daniel and the sacred harp dancing through the clover

Daniel daniel would you mind if i look it over
