VOCES8: Goin’ Home by Antonin Dvorak

VOCES8 sings Goin’ Home by Antonin Dvorak, arranged by Jim Clements in the Nikolai Kirche in Plön, Germany. TEXT English source: William Arms Fisher Goin’ home, goin’ home, I’m a goin’ home; Quiet like, some still day, I’m jes’ goin’ home. It’s not far, jes’ close by, Through an open door; Work all done, care laid by, goin’ to fear no more. Mother’s there ’spectin’ me, Father’s waitin’ too; Lots o’folk gather’d there, All the friends I knew. Nothin’ lost, all’s gain, No more fret nor pain, No more stumblin’ on the way, No more longin’ for the day, Goin’ to roam no more! Mornin’ star lights the way, Res’less dreams all done; Shadows gone, break o’day, Real life jes’ begun. Dere’s no break, ain’t no end, Jes’ a livin’ on; Wide awake, with a smile Goin’ on and on.
