191 Virginia from RAT QUEEN by Bashful Hannie

Sacred Harp is one of the oldest forms of American music. Compositions are written using the shape-note scale, which includes only four notes (fa, sol, la, mi).

This song, "Virginia 191", is based off its original namesake written in 1782 by a man named Oliver Brownson.

It is about wind and God.

Lyrics

Thy words the raging winds control/
And rule the boisterous deep/

Thou mak'st the sleeping billows roll/
The rolling billows sleep/
The rolling billows sleep/

Thou mak'st the sleeping billows roll/
The rolling billows sleep/
The rolling billows sleep/
