I knew my babe must die. I worked upon plantation ground, Though faint with woe and dread, Then ran, or flew, and here I found— See massa, almost dead. Then give me but one little hour— O! do not lash me so! One little hour—one little hour— And gratefully I'll go. Ah me! the whip has cut my boy, I heard his feeble scream; No more—farewell my only joy, My life's first gladsome dream! I lay thee on the lonely sod, The heaven is bright above; These Christians boast they have a God, And say his name is Love: O gentle, loving God, look down! My dying baby see; The mercy that from earth is flown, Perhaps may dwell with Thee!
