Ever since I first heard this song, I find myself singing on average once a week.

Apparently the only other guy who posted some of the best peter Bellamy on KZitem shut down his account so my playlist is filled with dead videos. Such a pity but I was happy to find this.

Sorry to hear that, i have some more Peter Bellamy on this channel and will undoubtedly have more at some point. It's not clear which videos youtube will claim on behalf of the artist and which ones they will remove completely so i can only hope that they will remain on this channel. Many thanks!

English Folk I wish I knew where to find him performing the ones I like the best. It’s seems he has several recordings that are all different so i don’t want to buy a cd because I want the one I used to listen too.

@@tybushnell9819 I have struggled with this too, i typically take a liking to one particular version of a song and find it difficult to enjoy any other in the same way. That being said there's such a huge amount of material from Peter Bellamy that i think it would be difficult to find one album which contains all your favorite versions of his songs. If i get some more of his songs including albums i will be posting them on here if KZitem allows it, so look out for that. Thanks for commenting.

In other (admittedly not as well recorded) versions of this marvellous poem turned song, Bellamy chooses to change "Odin" and "Thor" to "Woden" and "Þunor". The man was clearly conscious of England's distinct pagan past!

I have that version on the channel: kzitem.info/news/bejne/1KuQk2djgmZ6qHo I believe I had read somewhere that Bellamy was quite a learned man and was certainly historically conscious so I don't doubt that for a second. Kind regards

Can anyone post the lyrics? There's a few I can't understand and I'd love to know the song by heart so that I may sing it at my leisure

Shove off from the wharf-edge! Steady! Watch for a smooth! Give way! If she feels the lop already She'll stand on her head in the bay. It's ebb-it's dusk-it's blowing, And the shoals are a mile of white, But (snatch her along!) we're going To find our master tonight. Chorus: For we hold that in all disaster Of shipwreck, storm, or sword, A man must stand by his master When once he had pledged his word! Raging seas we have rowed in, But seldom we saw them thus; Our master is angry with Odin- So Odin is angry with us! Heavy odds have we taken, But never before such odds. The Gods they know they're forsaken, We must risk the wrath of the Gods! Over the crest she flies from, Into its hollow she drops, Crouches and clears her eyes from The wind-torn breaker-tops, Ere out on the shrieking shoulder Of a hill-high surge she drives. Meet her! Meet her and hold her! Pull for your scoundrel lives! The thunder bellow and clamour The harm that they mean to do; There goes Thor's Own Hammer Cracking the dark in two! Close! But the blow has missed her, Here comes the wind of the blow! Row or the squall'll twist her Broadside on to it!-Row! Hearken, Thor of the Thunder! We are not here for a jest- For wager, warfare, or plunder, Or to put your power to test. This work is none of our wishing- We would house at home if we might- But our master is wrecked out fishing, We go to find him tonight. Chorus: For we hold that in all disaster- As the Gods Themselves have said- A man must stand by his master Till one of the two is dead. That is the way of our thinking, Now you can do as you will, While we try to save her from sinking, And hold her head to it still. Bale her and keep her moving, Or she'll break her back in the trough… Who said the weather's improving, Or the swells are taking off? Sodden, and chafed and aching, Gone in the loins and the knees- No matter-for the day is breaking, And there's far less weight to the seas! Up mast, and finish baling- In oars, and out with the mead- The rest will be two-reef sailing… That was a night indeed! Chorus: But we hold that in all disaster (And faith, we have found it true!) If only you stand by your master, The Gods will stand by you!

I suspect it may be related to the belief that Kipling is somehow connected to White Supremacy... (His championship of non-English peoples robbed him of a Knighthood.)
