    THE WORLD IS OLD TONIGHT (2016)
    These songs represent our glory days with the late Jean Ritchie and other long-time friends. These are time-honored songs that we hope kindle ancestral, old-world remembrances of enchanted and sacred seasons in your own lives.

    In addition to Aubrey's vocals, mountain dulcimer, banjo, guitar, tin whistle and feet, and Elwood's vocals, guitar, mountain dulcimer and harmonica, we wish to thanks the outstanding musicians who added boundless depth and grace to these songs: Cathy Clasper-Torch on Chinese erhu, violin, cello and vocals; John Cerrigione on bass; Uriah Donnelly on piano; Kevin Doyle on djembe and Torrin Ryan on uilleann pipes.

about

I’ve Got a Mother Gone to Glory
Traditional Primitive Baptist hymn, from Jean Ritchie

lyrics

I’ve got a mother gone to glory
I’ve got a mother gone to glory
Look away, over yonder on the golden shore
Away up in heaven, Away up in heaven
I’ve got a mother gone to glory
Look away, over yonder on the golden shore

Some bright day I’ll go and see her
Some bright day I’ll go and see her
Look away, over yonder on the golden shore
Away up in heaven, Away up in heaven
Some bright day I’ll go and see her
Look away, over yonder on the golden shore

I’ve got a father gone to glory
I’ve got a father gone to glory
Look away, over yonder on the golden shore
Away up in heaven, Away up in heaven
I’ve got a father gone to glory
Look away, over yonder on the golden shore

Some bright day I’ll go and see him
Some bright day I’ll go and see him
Look away, over yonder on the golden shore
Away up in heaven, Away up in heaven
Some bright day I’ll go and see him
Look away, over yonder on the golden shore

That bright day may be tomorrow
That bright day may be tomorrow
Look away, over yonder on the golden shore
Away up in heaven, Away up in heaven
That bright day may be tomorrow
Look away, over yonder on the golden shore
