 No. 6.

Children, we all shall be free, Children, we all shall be free, Children, we all shall be free, When the Lord shall appear.

1. We want no cowards in our band, That from their colors fly, We call for valiant-hearted men, That are not afraid to die. —Children, we all shall be free, &c.

2. We see the pilgrim as he lies, With glory in his soul; To Heaven he lifts his longing eyes, And bids this world adieu. —Children, we all shall be free, &c.

3. Give ease to the sick, give sight to the blind, Enable the cripple to walk; He'll raise the dead from under the earth, And give them permission to fly. —Children, we all shall be free, &c.
