Sopranos and altos:
Hold me, rock me, calm and easy,
Hold me, rock me, deep and wide,
Hold me, rock me, in in your arms, Oh
I got a home on the other side.
Altos and basses:
Hold me, rock me, calm and easy,
Hold me, rock me, deep and wide,
Hold me, rock me, in in your arms, Oh
I got a home on, I got a home on,
I got a home on the other side.
Tenor/alto/bass "oooh",
sopranos:
Someday, gonna cross that river
Someday, gonna set out on my own
Don't know where my journey leads,
But I'll keep on walking 'til I get me home
Altos and basses repeat chorus, tenors join:
Hold me, rock me, calm and easy,
Hold me, rock me, deep and wide,
Hold me, rock me, in in your arms,
I got a home on, I got a ho-o-ome on the other side
Soprano/tenor/bass "oooh"
altos:
My life is a runnin' river
Flowin' from the mountains to a distant sea,
I've known many hills and valleys,
But when I reach that ocean, I'll be free, yes...
Alto/tenor/bass repeat chorus, sopranos join:
Lord, Lord, I'm comin'
Lord, Lord, hear my cry
Lord, Lord, sooner or later
I got a home on, I got a home on,
I got a home on the other side
You don’t know me,
Ooo (soprano, alto) Our eyes have never met.
Haven’t heard my story, Oooo
(tenor, bass) Or the voices in my head
Running me down, chasing me around
This lonely dead end.
I fell on hard times,
(soprano, alto) no one hears my cry
(soprano, alto) Do you think I’m crazy or just lookin’ to get high?
(tenor, bass) Oo, oo, just lookin’ to get high?
Oo, oo
(bass) Or may-be I’ve been at war only to come back and fight some more
My tears run dry
If I turn to you will you look away?
Pretending I’m not there.
Has your heart been betrayed?
We’ve all been down before
When only hope remains
(soprano) I am here, I am human.
And I have a name.
Mmm… I am still somebody’s child!
When I turn to you will you look away?
<< Remaining refrain>>
Desperate measures,
Ooo (soprano, alto) both from des’prate times
Holding out my hand, Oooo
(tenor, bass) Asking for a dime but people
Toss an empty gaze, fill my cup of shame
Still don’t know my crime,
What I need,
(soprano, alto) what I need the most
(soprano, alto) is to be seen I am not a hungry ghost
(tenor, bass) Oo, oo, am not a hungry ghost
Oo, oo
(bass) We’re all the same when we bleed, only you can help me to be freed
From the ragged end of my rope
<<Refrain>>
Imagine there’s no heaven. It’s easy if you try.
No hell below us, above us only sky.
Imagine all the people, living for today.
Imagine there’s no countries. It isn’t hard to do.
Nothing to kill or die for and no religion too.
Imagine all the people living life in peace.
You may say I’m a dreamer. But I’m not the only one.
I hope someday you’ll join us and the world will be as one.
Imagine no possessions. I wonder if you can.
No need for greed or hunger, a brotherhood of man.
Imagine all the people sharing all the world.
You may say I’m a dreamer. But I’m not the only one.
I hope someday you’ll join us and the world will be as one.
Marquis de Lafayette (3 X)
Yankee doodle went to town a riding on a pony
He stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni
Let tyrants shake their i………ron rod
And slavery clank her galling chains
We fear them not, we trust in God
New England’s God for e…….very reigns

And until we meet again
May you keep safe in the gentle loving arms of God.

In all things, God is near always guiding your way

Oo …..
Grant us gentleness in power, Grant us strength to face this hour, to forgive, to offer grace, and nurture peace in every place.
Grant us hope when all seems dire. Grant us faith to spark a fire, to fiercely burn, to drown the night, and set the world ablaze with light.
And when we meet resistance and our call puts us in danger, grant us patience and persistence to stand up for friend and stranger.
Grant us courage to be kind, Grant us singleness of mind to free the world from hate and fear, so only love is spoken here.
Oo …. Ah …
And when our path of justice leads us to the dreadful fight, grant us vigor, and entrust us with the power to do what’s right.
Grant us courage to be kind, Grant us singleness of mind to free the world from hate and fear, so only love is spoken here.
Oo …
