HYMN
Here we are together, now we can begin.
The youngest and the oldest, the only child, the twin.
Some who’re feeling left out and some who’re feeling in.
Gathering in this place.
Welcome everybody, it’s good to see you here.
Welcome everybody, it’s good to see you here.
Welcome everybody, it’s good to see you here.
Gathering in this place.
Here we are together, joining in this song
Even those who feel that their singing’s not that strong.
And as we sing may every person know that they belong.
Gathering in this place.
Here we are together, with our hopes and fears,
Bringing many feelings, our laughter and our tears.
And now it’s time for everyone to tell the world,
WE’RE HERE!
Gathering in this place.
