I am an Abolitionist!
I glory in the name:
Though now by Slavery-s minions hiss-d
And covered o-er with shame,
It is a spell of light and power -
The watchword of the free : --
Who spurns it in the trial-hour,
A craven soul is he !

I am an Abolitionist!
Then urge me not to pause;
For joyfully do I enlist
In Freedom-s sacred cause:
A nobler strife the world ne-er saw,
Th- enslaved to disenthral;
I am a soldier for the war,
Whatever may befall!

I am an Abolitionist!
Oppression-s deadly foe;
In God-s great strength will I resist,
And lay the monster low;
In God-s great name do I demand,
To all be freedom given,
That peace and joy may fill the land,
And songs go up to heaven!

I am an Abolitionist!
No threats shall awe my soul,
No perils cause me to desist,
No bribes my acts control;
A freeman will I live and die,
In sunshine and in shade,
And raise my voice for liberty,
Of nought on earth afraid.
