Cowboy's Carnival

"He has acknowledged us as His by
putting His seal upon us and giving us His Holy Spirit
in our hearts as the security deposit and the guarantee
of the fulfillment of His promise."
11 Corinthians 1:22

Round Up On Musselshell

(1919)

Charles Marion Russell

I've been thinking today as my thoughts began to stray;

Your memory to me's worth more than gold;

As you ride upon the plain midst the sunshine and the rain,

You'll be rounded up within the Master's fold.

(refrain)

We'll be rounded up in glory by and by;

We'll be rounded up in glory by and by;

When the milling time is o'er,

And we stampede no more,

We'll be rounded up in glory by and by.

May we lift our voice high till the glorious by and by,

And be known by all thro' God's own brand of love;

For His property we are, and He'll know us from afar,

And will round us up in glory by and by.

As we look upon the plain to the cowboys who have fain

While the raging storm and lightning flashes by;

We will meet to part no more on that happy golden shore

When we're rounded up in glory by and by.
