Subject: RE: parlour ballad ending - Safe in my Father's Arms
I've managed to record the last few lines from a film soundtrack
('Sea Cadets' - 1941) it appears to be a sailor ballad.
As far as I can transcribe (a little tough to hear) the words are:

..Call me, I'm rather late today,
Call me, I'd rather like to go.
To sail across the whole world o'er,
Safe in my Father's Arms,
Safe in my Father's Arms!

Hope this might help.
