Title : '39

In the year of '39

Assembled here the Volunteers

In the days when lands were few

Here the ship sailed out

Into the blue and sunny morning

The sweetest sight ever seen

" And the night followed day "

And the story tellers say :

" That the score brave souls inside

For many a lonely day

Sailed across the milky seas

Ne'er looked back'

Never feared'

Never cried "

Don't you hear my call

Though you're many years away

Don't you hear me calling you

Write your letters in the sand

For the day I take your hand

In the land that our

Grandchildren knew

In the year of '39'

Came a ship in from the blue

The Volunteers came home that day

And they bring good news

Of a world so newly born'

Though their hearts so heavily weight

For the earth is old and grey'

Little darling we'll away

But my love this cannot be

For so many years have gone

Though I'm older but a year

Your mother's eyes

From your eyes

Cry to me

Don't you hear my call

Though you're many years away

Don't you hear me calling you

Write your letters in the sand

For the day I take your hands

In the land that our

Grandchildren knew

Don't you hear my call

Though you're many years away

Don't you hear me calling you

All your letters in the sand

Cannot heal me like your hand

For my life

Still ahead

Pity Me
