Coal Creek Mine Lyrics

Shut up in the mine of Coal Creek

We know that we must die

But if we trust in Jesus

To heaven our souls shall fly

Our lamps are burning dimly

Our food is almost gone

Death wraps his shirt around us

Soon we'll be carried home

Goodbye dear wife and children

May you be treated kind

For now our time has come to die

Locked up in the Coal Creek Mine

Eleven of us were imprisoned

And two dear ones have died

Nine more are left to suffer

And die in the Coal Creek Mine

Dear friends, you should take a warning

And listen to what we say

You're now in the world of sunlight

And there you'd better stay
