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
Hey, do you have the sheet music for this song as a soprano only version? I have only found this song as an ensemble piece. We sang it in chorus a few years ago, and I had the solo part, and I want to sing it for an audition, but I cannot seem to find a solo arrangement!
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.
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 singing this for my solo piece. I’m an alto and this is right on my break😬

Aw - what a lovely memory!
Thanks for all the comments - I hadn't realised they'd been left here! Really pleased you enjoy this ... it's become one of my favourites!

This was so beautiful. The dynamics were done so well.

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

Great job. I love this song and you sound great singing this. Thanks for a great performance!
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
Congrats! It’s a great song - I finished my masters’ recital with it. I was about to leave US and go home to Ireland so it was apt!

Where did you find the sheet music for solo version trying to find one that I could have a go at ?
It's in 'Folk Songs for Solo Singers, vol. 1' - although it's actually not a folk song! Ed. by Jay Althouse, Alfred Publishing Co.
You want beautiful 😍😘❤️❤️❤️
