New Civil War song

vocal : Wendy

I miss you, Dear Sister,
Tonight I never felt so all alone

And the fog was so thick that the Stone's River stars
Could scarcely invade the dread and the dark
All that I could see when I closed my eyes to dream
Was home, sweet home

In the camps of Round Forest
the midnight coals were glowing through the haze
The union boys sang Hail Columbia and
Then a hush in the rain and there rose a sweet refrain

In the dark before dawn, instead of battle songs
The enemy and we all sang a melody
Was home, sweet home

we sang Look Away, Look away
and I never see the cotton fields of home again
I know that God will bear away my soul
And I'll wait for you there where all is bright and fair
Where the light of his face outshines the blue and gray
Where all of humankind yes every man will find
Of home, sweet home.
