Spirituals often refer to Old Testament stories. Here, apart from the river being used (again) as a symbol of escape, (see I stood on the River of Jordan), there are several unconnected references; the building of Noah's ark and the story of Daniel in the lion's den is interwoven into the request to the archangel Michael. The arrangement for four male voices is in gospel style.
