That Beautiful Old Hymn "There's Cr p On The Door"

"""Ring the bells softly, there’s c r a p on the door;
One now is sleeping whose sorrows are o’er;
White folded hands and calm, silent breast,
Peacefully, lovingly, now take their rest.
Waiting the judgment day, passing before;
Ring the bells softly, there’s c r a p on the door."""

This 1896 text comes from an old Presbyterian collection; it was wisely omitted in later publications. The correct word should be “crepe,” coming from a time where black crepe was placed on the front door of the home of a deceased person during the period of bereavement. Somehow, through a printer’s error or someone’s misprint, or perhaps an evil spirit, crepe became c r a p.

If Seth Eades had home church I am thinking this would be a hymn there!
