OPENINGS for Scouts Owns

 

Enter this place of peace and be still
Listen for the voice that calms your anxious heart
Prepare for a joy that will rise and fill
This place with love and hope 
Because YOU took part

        ------------------------------


God has created a new day;
Silver and Green and Gold,
Live that the sunset may find you
Worthy His gift to hold

         -------------------------------

Do not walk in front of me ; I may not follow
Do not walk behind me ; I may not lead the way,
Just Walk beside me, and be my friend


Spiritual Songs

Ezekiel Saw a Wheel 


Ezekiel Saw a Wheel a rolling
Way in the middle of the air
A wheel within a wheel a rolling
Way in the middle of the air
And the big wheel ran by Faith
And the little wheel ran by the grace of God
Ezekiel Saw a Wheel a rolling
Way in the middle of the air

Ezekiel heard a bell a tolling …

Ezekiel saw a fire a burning …

Come and go with me

Oh come and go with me
To my Fathers house
To my Fathers house
To my Fathers house
Oh come and go with me Hallelujah
To my Fathers house
Where there’s Peace, peace, peace

There’s sweet communion there
In my Fathers House …

There’ll be no parting there
At my Fathers house …

Kum Bah Yah

Kum Bah Yah my Lord, Kum Bah Yah
Kum Bah Yah my Lord, Kum Bah Yah
Kum Bah Yah my Lord, Kum Bah Yah
Oh Lord, Kum Bah Yah

Someone's crying Lord, Kum Bah Yah
Someone's crying Lord, Kum Bah Yah
Someone's crying Lord, Kum Bah Yah
Oh Lord, Kum Bah Yah

Someone's praying Lord, Kum Bah Yah …

Someone's laughing Lord, Kum Bah Yah …

 

Michael Row the Boat Ashore

(Refrain:)
Michael row the boat ashore, Alleluia
Michael row the boat ashore, Alleluia

Sister, help to trim the sail, Alleluia
Sister, help to trim the sail, Alleluia

The Jordan River is chilly and cold, Alleluia
Chills the body, but not the soul, Alleluia

River Jordan is deep and wide, Alleluia
Milk and honey on the other side,
Alleluia

(Refrain)


Closings


Go out into the world in peace
Be brave: keep hold of what is good.
Never pay back wrong for wrong:
Encourage the faint hearted.
Be always joyful: pray continually.
Give thanks whatever happens:
For this is what God wills for you.


May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be at your back
May the sun shine warmly on your face
May the rain fall softly on your field 
And until we meet again, 
May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
