Another in my series of shape-note tunes called Western Harmony. Click on the image for a larger, print-sized version. Stay tuned, I'll be recording solo versions of some of these songs when I get home, & hopefully eventually choral recordings. The lyrics:
CHOCTOW
Glorious harmonies of my freedom,
A chariot carries me to my home;
I am Jack Abramoff,
No, I'm not,
No, I'm not!
A trumpet calls me to arise!
Signs of salvation are in the sky,
Agnostics look up & question why;
I am Jack Abramoff,
No, I'm not,
No, I'm not!
They burn with faces of surprise!
I fly with gladness of Thy Nation,
On wings of love earth's vices I shun;
I am Jack Abramoff,
No, I'm not,
No, I'm not!
I believe in eternity!
Jack gambles & drinks with abandon,
But in Truth's campaign Jesus has won;
I am Jack Abramoff,
No, I'm not,
No, I'm not!
I will rest in my certainty!
