Subject: Songs about finding home? From: 4ADiva Date: 14 Apr 16 - 02:15 PM Hi folks. I've been asked to pull together a set with a couple of other people on the theme of "Finding Home" or "Coming Home." It's for a fundraiser for refugees and homeless people. We have some good ones, but one person is struggling to find one to lead. The songs must have a strong, easy chorus so that the audience can sing along with the aid of lyrics projected overhead. Any suggestions? Thanks! So far we have: Take Me Home, Country Roads Rolling Home (John Tams) South Australia Plus an original song. |
