When lamb and lion lie down together
Joy and wonders never cease
Alleluia, Alleluia, grant us peace
I learned this from the incredible song leader and fiddle player Katie Newell at Maine Fiddle Camp. She has spent decades rearing the next generations of Maine musicians in the Damariscotta area and has taught me a huge amount of the songs I know. In particular she has a vast collection of rounds that are incredibly good. This is one of them.
I've heard people get tripped up on starting the round part of this! Tip: "When" is actually a "pickup" so it should be sung exactly at the same time as "ther" in "together." Then "Lamb" and "Joy" are sung at exactly the same time and you're off to the races.
