1 BRI G THEM HOME OW TOUR SO GS Amazing Grace "Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me... I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now, I see. T'was Grace that taught... my heart to fear. And Grace, my fears relieved. How precious did that Grace appear... the hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils and snares... we have already come. T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far... and Grace will lead us home. Let There Be Peace On Earth Let there be peace on earth, and let it begin with me. Let there be peace on Earth, the peace that was meant to be. With God as our Father, brothers all are we, Let me walk with my brother, in perfect harmony. Let peace begin with me, let this be the moment now. With every step I take, let this be my solemn vow, To take each moment and live each moment in peace, eternally. Let there be Peace on Earth, and let it begin with me The Lord has promised good to me... His word my hope secures. He will my shield and portion be... as long as life endures. When we've been here ten thousand years... bright shining as the sun. We've no less days to sing God's praise... then when we've first begun. "Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me... I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now, I see. (end) God Bless America by Irving Berlin Land that I love, Stand beside her and guide her Thru the night with a light from above; From the mountains, to the prairies, To the oceans white with foam, My home, sweet home. My home, sweet home.

2 This Land Is Your Land words and music by Woody Guthrie : This land is your land, this land is my land From California, to the New York Island From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters As I was walking a ribbon of highway I saw above me an endless skyway I saw below me a golden valley I've roamed and rambled and I've followed my footsteps To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts And all around me a voice was sounding The sun comes shining as I was strolling The wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling The fog was lifting a voice come chanting As I was walkin' - I saw a sign there And that sign said - no tress passin' But on the other side... it didn't say nothin! Now that side was made for you and me! In the squares of the city - In the shadow of the steeple Near the relief office - I see my people And some are grumblin' and some are wonderin' If this land's still made for you and me. (2x) Where Have All The Flowers Gone words and music by Pete Seeger Girls have picked them every one Taken husbands every one Gone for soldiers every one Gone to graveyards every one Covered with flowers every one When will we ever learn? When will we ever learn?

4 This Little Light of Mine This little light of mine Oh, this little light of mine This little light of mine Ev'ry where I go Oh, ev'ry where I go Ev'ry where I go All in my house Oh, all in my house All in my house Out in the dark Oh, out in the dark Out in the dark We Shall Overcome We shall overcome, we shall overcome We shall overcome, someday, someday Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe We shall overcome, someday We shall live in peace, we shall live in peace We shall live in peace, someday, someday We shall live in peace, we shall live in peace We shall overcome, someday 3) We ll walk hand in hand, someday. 4) The truth will make us free, someday. Taps Day is gone, gone the sun, from the hills, from the lake, from the skies. All is well, safely rest, God is nigh. Go to sleep, peaceful sleep. May the soldier or sailor, Spirit keep. On the land, or the deep, safe in sleep. Love, good night. Must thou go when the day and the night need thee so? All is well. Speedeth all to their rest. Fades the light, and afar goeth day and the stars, shineth bright. Fare thee well; Day has gone, night is on. Thanks & praise, for our days, neath the sun, neath the stars, neath the sky Fare thee well. Peace is near. God is nigh.
