about

A great old song from the 'Sacred Harp,' composed in 1799 by Amos Pilsbury (1772-1812) with lyrics by Isaac Watts. We perform it in typical unrestrained convention style, first singing the fa-sol-la-mi syllables and then the verses, and highlighting the song's startling dissonances.

lyrics

He dies, the friend of sinners dies,
Lo, Salem’s daughters weep around;
A solemn darkness veils the skies,
A sudden trembling shakes the ground
