Lyrics
(African American Spiritual)
Refrain 1
Oh, walk together children
Don’t you get weary
Walk together children
Don’t you get weary
Walk together children
Don’t you get weary
There’s a great camp meeting in the promised land
1. Goin’ to mourn and never tire,
Mourn and never tire,
Mourn and never tire,
There’s a great camp meeting in the promised land Refrain 2
Refrain 2
Oh, clap together children
Don’t you get weary
Clap together children
Don’t you get weary
Clap together children
Don’t you get weary
There’s a great camp meeting in the promised land
2. Goin’ to shout and never tire,
Shout and never tire,
Shout and never tire,
There’s a great camp meeting in the promised land. Refrain 3

Oh, sing together children
Don’t you get weary
Sing together children
Don’t you get weary
Sing together children
Don’t you get weary
There’s a great camp meeting in the promised land
