Daniel And The Sacred Harp Lyrics - Stage Fright - Band

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 into your posession 

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'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.

Then Daniel took the harp and went high on the hill 

And he blew across the meadow like a whippoorwhill 

He played out his heart just the time to pass 

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