    Come, come with me out to the old churchyard
    I so well know that paths 'neath the soft green sward
    Friends slumber in there that we wants to regard
    We will trace out their names in the old churchyard
    Mourn not for them, their trials are o'er
    And why weep for those who will weep no more?
    For sweet is their sleep, though cold and hard
    Their pillows may be in the old churchyard
    And I know that it's vain when our friends depart
    To breathe kind words to a broken heart
    And I know that the joy of life it is marred
    When we follow lost friends to the old churchyard
    But were I at rest 'neath yonder tree
    Oh, why would you weep, my friends, for me?
    I'm so weary, so wayworn, why would you retard
    The peace I seek in the old churchyard?
    Why weep for me, for I'm anxious to go
    To that haven of rest where no tears ever flow?
    And I fear not to enter that dark lonely tomb
    Where our Savior has lain and had conquered the gloom
    And I rest in the hope that one bright day
    Sunshine will burst through these prisons of clay
    And old Gabriel's trumpet and the voice of the Lord
    Will wake up the dead in the old churchyard

    I can tell that there's some quality musicianship present here, just a bit overproduced for my taste, especially considering that this is a folk song. Don't hide behind the vocal processing so much. You've got a great voice let it shine. Beautiful song.
