Even a slave, when dying, cried: "I am going home! Oh, how glad I am!"[76] The following hymns also vividly set forth what happy anxiety the slave felt about his journey "home." "Gwine to weep, gwine to mourn, Gwine to get up early in de morn, Fo' my soul's goin' to heaven jes' sho's you born, Brother Gabriel goin' ter blow his horn. Goin' to sing, goin' to pray, Goin' to pack all my things away, Fo' my soul's goin' to heaven jes' sho's you born, Brother Gabriel gwine ter blow his horn."[77] "I want to go to Canaan, I want to go to Canaan, I want to go to Canaan, To meet 'em at de comin' day."[78] "I'm goin' home fer to see my Lord, Bear yo' burden, sinner, An' don't you wish you could go 'long Bear yo' burden, let in the heat."[79] "Oh, my mudder's in de road, Most done trabelling; My mudder's in de road, Most done trabelling, My mudder's in de road, Most done trabelling, I'm bound to carry my soul to de Lord."[80] "Run, Mary, run, Run, Mary, run, Oh, run, Mary, run, I know de oder worl' 'm not like dis. Fire in de east an' fire in de west, I know de oder worl' 'm not like dis, Bound to burn de wilderness, I know de oder worl' 'm not like dis. Jordan's ribber is a ribber to cross, I know de oder worl' 'm not like dis, Stretch your rod an' come across, I know de oder worl' 'm not like dis."[81] "We will march through the valley in peace, We will march through the valley in peace; If Jesus himself be our leader, We will march through the valley in peace."[82] "My sister's goin' to heaven fer to see my Lord, To see my Lord, to see my Lord; Well, my sister's goin' to heaven, to see my Lord, What's de onbelievin' soul?"[83] "Bend-in' knees a-ach-in' Body racked wid pain, I wish I was a child of God, I'd git home bim-by. Keep prayin; I do believe We're a long time waggin o' de crossin, Keep prayin; I do believe We'll git home to heaven bim-by. O yonder's my old mudder, Been a-waggin' at the hill so long; It's about time she cross over, Git home bim-by. O hear dat lumerin' thunder A-roll from do' to do', A-callin' de people home to God; Dey'll git home bim-by."[84] "When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. By the grace of God up yonder, I'll be there. Yes my home is way up yonder, An' I'll be there. I got a mother way up yonder, I'll be there. I got a sister way up yonder, I'll be there."[85]
