Intro :

There was a L ady and a Lady g ay

O f children she had t hree

She sent them aw ay to the North Countree

To l earn their grammar ee

They'd not been g one but a very short t ime

S carcely three weeks and a d ay

W hen death cruel death came harkening along

And s tole those babes aw ay

"There is a K ing in Heaven" she c ried

"A King of third deg ree

Send back send b ack my three little babes

This n ight send them back to m e."

She made a b ed in the uppermost r oom

O n it she put a white s heet

A nd over the top a golden spread

That t hey much better might s leep

" Take it off take it o ff" cried the older o ne

" Take it off take it off" cried h e

"For what's to bec ome of this wide wicked world

Since s in has first beg un."

She set a t able of linen f ine

O n it she placed bread and w ine

C ome eat come drink my three little babes

"Come e at come drink of m ine."

"We want none o f your bread moth er

N either do we want your w ine

For yonder s tands our Savior dear

To H im we must res ign."

"Green grass is o ver our heads mot her

C old clay is over our f eet

And every t ear you shed for us

It w ets our winding-s heet."
