lyrics

Good friends now our meeting is over
Good friends we must part
And if I never see you anymore
I’ll love you in my heart

And we’ll land on the shore
Yes we'll land on the shore
We will land on the shore
And be saved forever more

Mothers now our meeting is over,
Mother we must part
And if I never see you anymore
I’ll love you in my heart

And we’ll land on the shore
Yes we'll land on the shore
We will land on the shore
And be saved forever more

Fathers now our meeting is over,
Fathers we must part
If I never see you anymore
I will love you in my heart

And we’ll land on the shore
Yes we'll land on the shore
We will land on the shore
And be saved forever more

O sisters now our meeting is over,
Sisters we must part
And if I never see you anymore
I will love you in my heart

And we’ll land on the shore
Yes we'll land on the shore
Land on the shore
And be saved forever more

Brothers now our meeting is over,
Brothers we must part
And if I never see you anymore
I will love you in my heart

We’ll land on shore
We'll land on shore
Land on the shore
And be saved forever more

Good friends now our meeting is over
Good friends we must part
And if I never see you anymore
I’ll love you in my heart

Land on shore
We'll land on shore
Land on the shore
And be saved forever more

Land on shore
Yes we'll land on shore
Land on the shore
And be saved forever more
And be saved forever more
Will be saved forever more
