Battle of Shiloh

Song Page

(To the tune of Amazing Grace)

A surprised

Attack

Staged by

The Rebels

On the

Sixth of

April

Blue coats

Were torn

And later mourned

But still they stood

Their ground

The next

Day brought

With it

The sun

And a

New beginning

The Rebels defended

But for them

Sad it ended

The Union

Won Shiloh

One in

Every three

Men lost

Their lives

During the

Devil's own day

But still

We found with haste

That this was

Just a taste

Of what was still

To come
