im in the 13th arbroath guides and we sing: the day is done gone the sun from the trees from the hills from the skys all is well safely rest god is nigh
I became a guide with the 1st New Malden in 1967, becoming one of the youngest Queen's guides 3 years later. I still have the uniform with all my badges! From memory we sang:
Day is done Gone the sun From the trees From the hills From the sky As we go This we know God is nigh
This seems to be an amalgamation of 2 versions.
By the way, I've loved reading the lyrics to your songs; I only wish I'd been able to find my campfire song book! Thank you so much for the memories
