Lyrics Homeward Bound
- Written by :
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 listening, And 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 When 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 (Louder) 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

Album: Homeward Bound
In the quiet misty morning when the Moon as gone to bed. When the sparrows stop there singing, and the sky is clear and red. When the summer ceased it's gleeming when the corn is past it's prime. When adventures lost it's meaning, I'll be homeward bound in time. Bind me not to the pastures. Chain me not to the plow. Set me free to find my calling, and I'll return to you some how. If you find it's me you're missing. If you're hoping I'll return, to your thoughts I'll soon be listening. In the road I'll stop and turn. Then the wind will set me racing, as my jounery nears it's end, and the path i'll be retracing, when i'm homeward bound again. Bind me not to the pastures. Chain me not to the plow. Set me free to find my calling and I'll return to you some how. Bind me not to the pastures. Chain me not to the plow. Set me free to find my calling, and I'll return to you some how. Bind me not to the pastures. Chain me not to the plow. Set me free to find my calling, and I'll return to you some how. Bind me not to the pasture. Chain me not to the plow set me free to find my calling, and I'll return, and I'll return, and I'll return to you some how, some how, some how.

Marta Keen: Homeward Bound
Written by Jonathan Estabrooks
In category: song of the day, published january 25, 2017.
There is something truly magical about this song. I first discovered it as a young boy soprano, growing up in Ottawa, Canada. Known to me only as a choral work, I was surprised to see a recent revival by a number of solo artists and YouTubers. The text became even more poignant and personal for me while working abroad and chasing a new adventure, yet missing home.
In her own words, Ms. Keen describes the intentions behind this hauntingly beautiful work: “Finding your true calling in life; knowing that those who love you trust that you will return… I wrote this song for a loved one who was embarking upon a new phase of life’s journey, to express the soul’s yearning to grow and change. It was premiered by a Seattle Irish tenor, but soon after was beautifully arranged by Jay Althouse and published by Alfred Music. It has been performed by choirs of all ages throughout the English speaking world and many Asian countries.”
I hope you enjoy my interpretation and images from Airlie Beach, Australia and the Fiordlands in New Zealand, with cliffs that seem to fall into the ocean. It was a magnificent sight to see.
Hello mate this is genuinely incredible x
This is a very special song and I really loved this arrangement of it. I only recently discovered this song but as I am currently on a journey of groth and development it really spoke to me.

Homeward bound, I wish I was homeward bound, Home where my thought's escaping, Home where my music's playing, Home where my love lies waiting silently for me.
