[00:08.509]	Come all ye valiant soldiers -- a story I will tell
[00:16.815]	About the bloody battle that was fought on Shiloh Hill.
[00:26.155]	It was an awful struggle and will cause your blood to chill;
[00:34.217]	It was the famous battle that was fought on Shiloh Hill.
[00:42.712]	'Twas on the sixth of April, just at the break of day;
[00:50.837]	The drums and fifes were playing for us to march away.
[01:00.296]	The feeling of that hour I do remember still,
[01:08.367]	For the wounded and the dying that lay on Shiloh Hill.
[01:27.364]	About the hour of sunrise the battle it began;
[01:35.668]	Before the day had vanished, we fought 'em hand to hand.
[01:44.653]	The horrors of that field did my heart with anguish fill
[01:53.083]	For the wounded and the dying that lay on Shiloh Hill.
[02:01.672]	The wounded men were crying for help from everywhere,
[02:09.660]	While others who were dying were offering God their prayer,
[02:19.055]	"Protect my wife and children if it is Thy holy will!"
[02:27.336]	Such were the prayers I heard that night on bloody Shiloh Hill.
[02:46.186]	And early the next morning we were called to arms again,
[02:54.302]	Unmindful of the wounded and unmindful to the slain;
[03:03.823]	The struggle was renewed again, and ten thousand men were killed;
[03:11.850]	This was the second conflict of the famous Shiloh Hill.
[03:20.421]	The battle it raged on, though dead and dying men
[03:28.437]	Lay thick all o'er the ground, on the hill and on the glen;
[03:37.767]	And from their deadly wounds, the blood ran like a rill;
[03:45.988]	Such were the mournful sights that I saw on bloody Shiloh Hill.
[04:04.979]	Before the day was ended, the battle ceased to roar,
[04:13.083]	And thousands of brave soldiers had fell to rise no more;
[04:22.400]	They left their vacant ranks for some other ones to fill,
[04:30.562]	And now their mouldering bodies all lie on Shiloh Hill.
[04:39.253]	And now my song is ended about those bloody plains;
[04:47.149]	I hope the sight by mortal man may ne'er be seen again!
[04:56.402]	But I pray to God, my Saviour, "If consistent with Thy will,
[05:04.678]	To save the souls of all who fell on bloody Shiloh Hill."
