SATB a cappella
African-American Spiritual in English
Difficulty rating (1-5): 3
This is another song title which has two
different melodies attached to it. The one I have arranged is
the less well known of the two -- and the main source is the Lomax book on American music. This piece is dedicated to Dr.
Nancy Menk, the wonderful director of the St. Mary’s College
Women’s Choir in Indiana and also director of the South Bend
(IN) Chamber Singers.
Complete perusal score available upon
request. TEXT
Blin' man stood
on de road an' cried,
Blin' man stood
on de road an' cried.
cry-in' "O,
Lawd, show me de way",
Blin' man stood
on de road an' cried.
Cryin' "Help
me, O Lawd, if you please,
Cryin' "Help
me, O Lawd, if you please,"
Cryin' "O, Lawd,
show me de way",
Blin' man stood
on de road an' cried.
When I was a
sinner, I stood on de road an' cried,
When I was a
sinner, I stood on de road an' cried,
Cry-in' O, Lawd,
show me
de way,
Blin' man stood
on de road an' cried.
