The title of this spiritual comes from Luke 9:26 - “No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.”
Like the drinking gourd in the spiritual “Follow the Drinking Gourd,” the plow was code for the Big Dipper and hence the way towards the slave's freedom in the North. The song was first collected by Cecil Sharpe in 1917 and was reworked during the civil rights movement as "Keep Your Eyes on The Prize."
Performed by Glenn Weiser on a 1926 0-21 Martin guitar and diatonic harmonica (third position, for you harmonica players). For information about Glenn’s CDs, guitar and harmonica books, and virtual private music lessons, visit www.celticguitarmusic.com.
