18 Aug 00 - 07:59 AM (#280144) Subject: Lyrics for Song For Peace by Allister Ma From: GUEST There is a beautiful song that the Barra MacNeils, among others, sing called Song For Peace. It was written by Cape Bretoner, Allister MacGillivray. I can't figure out what the lyrics are for the 3rd line of the second verse. The verse goes.... Those who suffer, those who cry, Call for brothers, and friends by and by, ??????????????????????united we stand, Side by side, arm in arm, hand in hand. Can enyone help? Thanks Ray Whitmore |

It's not in the Nova Scotia songbook, Cape breton Songbook, or Song for the Mira songbook all by Allister MacGillivray. The song is on the latest cd - Song for the Mira, all Allister MacGillivray songs sung by other artists. Great cd. Thanks, Ray Whitmore. |

It's wonderful. I hadn't listened closely to that track until this morning, when I as listening to the rest of the CD after working out the words to Song For Peace. For other Canadians, if you haven't heard that one yet, it's a great inspirational song. |

Chorus Cast your nets on these waters, your lines on the sea, Your sights on horizons wherever you please, For together we'll weather the tide that prevails, With the sun on our shoulders, the wind in our sails Those who suffer, those who cry, Call for brothers and friends, by and by For 'tis certain united we stand Side by side, arm in arm, hand in hand Little children know the way They spend life, dream by dream, day by day And by nature they seem to imply, We must love, and never ask why |
