http://thethompsonbrothers.blogspot.com. This is our version of an old Scots language hymn, published in Duncan MNeils Hymn Book around 1920. An early recording of this hymn from the 1920s can be found at http://www.raretunes.org. ••• The Thompson Brothers were originally founder members of the Low Country Boys (from Feb 2002 - Dec 2007, playing hundreds of dates in Ulster, Scotland and even the Smithsonian Folklife Festival in Washington DC in July 07) and recording two best-selling albums Gran Time Comin and Sangs O Bairns an Hame. Now we're back to how we started, playing old-time gospel music as a traditional brother duet in an Ulster-Scots mission hall style. ••• Recorded live at Bangor Abbey on Saturday 10 October 2009 in Bangor, Northern Ireland. Bangor Abbey is an ancient Christian building, dating back to 558AD - and is also an important Ulster-Scots heritage site.
