One More River

from Home Waters Live by Sam Carter

/

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    When Sam Carter envisioned his acclaimed fourth album Home Waters - released in the early throes of the pandemic - as 'a search for a sense of belonging and stability in unfamiliar territory', he couldn't have known how prescient that would turn out to be.

    Sam returns now with Home Waters Live, his first post-lockdown performance with the Home Waters Quartet, captured in exquisite studio-quality audio. This Bandcamp-exclusive album features a brand new version of the traditional English song Just As The Tide Was Flowing, as well as all the songs of Home Waters, alongside selected songs from Sam's back catalogue. The perfect audio companion to the online premiere of Home Waters In Concert, which airs on Bandcamp on 24th September, to coincide with the album release.

lyrics

Oh father did you die in chains and am I shackled still?

I have but one more river to cross and then I’ll be at rest

And should I spill my master’s blood to break these bonds and flee?

I have but one more river to cross and then I’ll be at rest


And must I leave Virginia fair and sail across the sea?

I have but one more river to cross and then I’ll be at rest

And will I walk on England's soil in sweetest liberty?

I have but one more river to cross and then I’ll be at rest
