What reading level is The Sacred Harp book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
O come quickly !
Hallelujah ! Come, Lord, Come !
THE SACRED HARP. 53 THE MISSIONARY'S DEATH.
ANON.
Weep not for the saint that ascends To partake of the joys of the sky, Weep not for the seraph which bends With the worshipping chorus on high. Weep not for the spirit now crowned, With the garland to martyrdom given, O weep not for him, he has fomid His reward and liis refuge in heaven.
But weep for their sorrows, who stand And lament o'er the dead by his grave, — Who sigh when they muse on the l...and Of their home, far away o'er the wave : — Who sigh when they think that the strife, And the toil, and the perils before them, Must fill up the moments of life, 'Till the anguish of death shall come o'er them.
54 THE SACRED HARP.
And weep for the nations that dwell Where the light of the truth never shone, Where anthems of praise never swell, And the love of the Lamb is unltnown. O weep ! — for the herald that came To proclaim in their dwelling the story Of Jesus, and life through his name, Has been summoned away to his glory.
