<P> `` There Is Power in a Union '' is a song written by Joe Hill in 1913 . The Industrial Workers of the World ( commonly known as the Wobblies ) concentrated much of its labor trying to organize migrant workers in lumber and construction camps . They sometimes had competition for the attention of the workers from religious organizations . The song uses the tune of Lewis E. Jones ' 1899 hymn `` There Is Power in the Blood ( Of the Lamb ) '' . </P>
