BAPTIZING HYMN- "Freely Go" Collected in Boyle Co., Kentucky by Miss Mildred Hill of Louisville. Key of Em (raised 6th)
Freely go marching along,
Down to the water
Freely go marching along,
Like Zion's sons and daughters.
Every time I look up to the house of God,
The angels cry out, "Glory
Glory to my God who lives on high,
To save a soul from danger."
