Geoff Kaufman recorded it on his Fair Stood the Wind record which I can't find. I think I remember the words but I don't trust myself on that score anymore. Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks, David. |

There's an old gospel balled, "Land on the Shore" (or "Land on Shore"), which is sometimes sung as "Stand on the Shore": Fathers now our meeting is over Fathers we must part And if I never see you again I'll love you in my heart And we'll land on the shore Yes we'll land on the shore And we'll land on the shore And be saved forever more That may not be the one you mean, but it's worth a try. Aloha, Mark |

Chorus: And we'll land on the shore Yes we'll land on the shore Yes we'll land on the shore And be safe forever more. Mothers now, our meeting is over Mothers we must part, And if I never see you anymore I'll love you in my heart. Sisters now, our meeting is over Sister we must part, And if I never see you anymore I'll love you in my heart.

Have just returned home from Bridgnorth Folk Festival where we sang this in two-part harmony with Cloudstreet at their workshop! Have been singing it in my head on the train home, and now here it is again! Is there something in the air? I'd never heard it before Saturday..... |
