Harry Macdonough - We Are Going Down The Valley (1904)

We are going down the valley one by one,
With our faces tow'rd the setting of the sun.
Down the valley where the mournful cypress grows,
Where the stream of death in silence onward flows.

We are going down the valley, going down the valley,
going toward the setting of the sun.
We are going down the valley, going down the valley,
going down the valley one by one.

We are going down the valley one by one,
When the labors of the weary day are done;
One by one, the cares of earth forever past,
We shall stand upon the river brink at last.

We are going down the valley, going down the valley,
going toward the setting of the sun.
We are going down the valley, going down the valley,
going down the valley one by one.
