Subject: ADD Version: Turning of the World (Ruth Pelham)
Here's how I sing it:
TURNING OF THE WORLD
(Ruth Pelham)
1. Let us sing this song for the [turning] of the world
That we may [turn] as one.
With every voice, with every song,
We will move this world along,
And our lives will feel the echo of our [turning].
With every voice, with every song,
We will move this world along.
With every voice, with every song,
We will move this world along.
And our lives will know the echo of our [turning].
2. [loving] [love]
3. [healing] [heal]
4. [dreaming] [dream]
repeat last line at the end with: and our lives will feel the echo of our healing / ...loving / ...turning
