"Old John Brown's body lies a-mouldering in the grave / While weep the sons of bondage whom he ventured all to save / But though he lost his life in struggling for the slave / His truth is marching on / Glory, Glory, Hallelujah! / His truth is marching on! / Oh, soldiers of freedom, then strike while strike you may / The deathblow of oppression in a better time and way / For the dawn of old John Brown was brightened into day / And his truth is marching on / Glory, Glory, Hallelujah! / His truth is marching on!"-- lyrics of "John Brown's Body," an abolitionist song that became a popular tune among Union soldiers during the Civil War; Julia Ward Howe rewrote the lyrics to compose "The Battle Hymn of the Republic"
