Last time I sang Kumbaya was at my Aunt's funeral - she was very active in the Brownie / Guide / Ranger movement in London and we wanted to reflect that huge part of her life in the service. My sister wanted us to sing Ging Gang Goolie but we compromised on Kumbaya, each verse sung as a response to a prayer. At least that way we didn't collapse into fits of laughter, and No, we didn't hold hands!
