This recording of Wind in the Willows is from a band called Spud on the 1977 album A Feast of Irish Folk:

The song is actually called Bread And Fishes. Written by Alan Bell in the early seventies or possibly late 60s.

Is there a version that anyone knows of
"Wind in the willows and (stars / smiles) through the trees. Will carry home to the place I belong"

I may just have a hymn and a song mixed together

My name is joseph, this is mary my wife, and this is our young son who brightens our life.

I used to sing this song in the car on long journeys as a child, my dad loved it and always asked me to sing it, so I'll be singing it at his funeral. Happy memories.

I've just checked that link again - and I see that The Sunday Gospel link is sold out. If you search iTunes for "Bread and Fishes" you get a selection of artists singing the same hymn - eg the Houghton Weavers.

I don't like any of these versions as much as the one by Susan McCann & Brendan Quinn. A bit more searching and I found With the Wind in The Willows on a different CD by Susan McCann & Brendan Quinn:-

we sang it
My name is Joseph this is mary my wofe and this is young jesus our pride and our joy.

I think.
That was over 30 years ago!
wow.
But the internet is pretty amazing for this kind of thing.

we sang the 3rd verse slighty differently,
when he asks the travellers name they reply

My name is Joseph this is mary my wofe and this is young jesus who is a delight. instead of "Our name, they mean nothing...
They change throughout time
So come sit beside us and share in our wine"
