You did great ! ❤️ i sang this solo probably 15 years ago.

Beautiful

I love this arrangement and the piano accompaniment. Where can I buy this specific score?

I have to go and sing this for solo ensemble

I cried. Beautifully sung.

Verse 1 Amazing Grace how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found; Was blind, but now I see. Verse 2 ‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed! Verse 3 Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come; ‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home. Verse 4 The Lord has promised good to me, His Word my hope secures; He will my Shield and Portion be, As long as life endures. Verse 5 Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail, And mortal life shall cease, I shall possess, within the veil, A life of joy and peace. Verse 6 The earth shall soon dissolve like snow, The sun forbear to shine; But God, Who called me here below, Will be forever mine. Verse 7 When we’ve been there ten thousand years, Bright shining as the sun, We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise Than when we’d first begun.

Where did you find the sheet music for solo version trying to find one that I could have a go at ?

My older sister used to sing this to me whenever I had nightmares as a kid. I’ve been looking for it but I couldn’t find it for the longest time. But humming it always calm me down when I’m stressed

not the white woman singing african-american spiritual about escaping slavery like this

In the quiet misty morning When the moon has gone to bed When the sparrows stop their singing And the sky is clear and red When the summer's ceased its gleaming When the corn is past its prime When adventure's lost its meaning I'll be homeward bound in time Bind me not to the pasture Chain me not to the plow Set me free to find my calling And I'll return to you somehow If you find it's me you're missing If you're hoping I'll return To your thoughts I'll soon be list'ning In the road I'll stop and turn Then the wind will set me racing As my journey nears its end And the path I'll be retracing As I'm homeward bound again Bind me not to the pasture Chain me not to the plow Set me free to find my calling And I'll return to you somehow Bind me not to pasture Chain me not to the plow Set me free to find my calling And I'll return to you somehow In the quiet misty morning When the moon has gone to bed When the sparrows stop their singing And the sky is clear and red When the summer's ceased its gleaming When the corn is past its prime When adventure's lost its meaning I'll be homeward bound in time

I'm so excited to sing this for solo and ensemble!

Cute

I don't know if you even use this youtube account anymore but I really hope so, so that I can tell you this. This is my favourite performance of this song in any arrangement ever.

I'm singing this for my solo... I'm a TENOR 0.0

You have a beautiful voice!

I did this as an alto in seventh grade for my FIRST Solo in solo and ensemble competition and GOT A ONE!!!! I WAS SOO HAPPY

I’m using this for voice lessons in 2020💁🏻‍♀️👏🏻🙏🏻

This is what I have to perform for a choir competition

I hope you are still singing.

Very nice placement

Thank you! And best of luck with your own performance - it’s a great song!

Oh my goodness!!!! I am going to sing this song and was looking for examples and boy did I find it! So beautiful I teared up. I felt every word like I was trying to hold on to the sound before it slipped away. So beautiful and vibrant. Lovely.

Sang this song at School fifty plus years ago....First time I've looked it up....Beautiful...

"Cailín na Gruaige Doinne" is the correct spelling.

Reply to Edward Palmer. Hello Edward, have you received answers to your questions? 1. There is an article in The Musical Times 54 no. 843 (May 1, 1913) which reviews Hamilton Harty's "A Cradle Song" (same lyrics as Hughes' song) and refers to it as a "lullaby of death." 2. Lines 5-8 (Mavourneen is going...) from the poem by Padraic Colum are found in a stained glass window by Harry Clarke, titled "The Geneva Window," in which he depicts a mother and child and the Virgin Mary in the background. 3. "Mantle of blue" in the lyrics is associated with the Virgin Mary, as historically, she was most often depicted in sacred art in a blue cloak from the eleventh and twelfth centuries onwards. 4. The child is very young- young enough to be rocked to sleep- so, not a soldier. 5. In the lines "Mavourneen is going from me and from you": Mavourneen translates as "my beloved" and refers to the child, who is dying, and therefore "going" from the mother (me and you- the mother is referring to herself and the men from the fields, whom she addresses in the first line). The child is going to heaven, where Mary will receive him in her mantle of blue. 6. He is leaving the "reek of the smoke and cold of the floor", descriptions which suggest a simple rural residence and "the peering of things across the half door" could refer either to livestock or perhaps a sense of the supernatural. A half-door was a feature of rural architecture. 7. Mavourneen can also be a first name, but my understanding is that it is usually a girl's name. 8. I contacted Aine Mulvey in 2016 (hello, Aine!) and she indicated that the interpretation that an individual child has died (as opposed to the birth of the Christ child) and people are paying their respects is common knowledge within Ireland. I hope the additional information is of some use. J.

This song is a fair good tune

So beautiful!

Thanks, Margo! I'm bringing them to South Africa next July!
