Get Up and Go
Artist: Alison Casella Brookins Lyrics: (below) Type: Unison refrain, call/response verses Notes: Starting note A. Upbeat sending song. There should probably be clapping. Refrain You gotta get up and go out of this place Get up, go out and live 2x Verse 1 Leader: Your God came that you might have life All: Get up, go out and live Leader: So full of light that you just can’t hide All: Get up, go out and live refrain Verse 2 Leader: Won’t be easy, you’re gonna be scared All: Get up, go out and live Leader: Look around there’s hope out there All: Get up, go out and live refrain Verse 3 Leader: Take a step and raise your voice All: Get up, go out and live Leader: Don’t hafta be perfect to sing ‘n rejoice All: Get up, go out and live Be Right Here
Artist: Alison Casella Brookins Lyrics: Here; right here; be right here Type: Unison, Loose round Notes: Starting note C#. This one is good with a drone, or a Shruti box. Can be sung in unison, or layered, either precisely as demonstrated in the recording, or loosely with a drone accompaniment, with each person singing the words repeatedly, coming in whenever they want, creating a tapestry of sound. A good song to sing before prayer or before a practice like confession. Encourages us to ground and center ourselves here and now. Welcome to the Arms of God
Artist: Alison Casella Brookins Lyrics: Welcome to the arms of God Welcome to the hands of Christ Sing welcome to the Spirit she is coming even now Welcome, welcome home Type: Round, Unison Notes: Starting note: C. Simple welcome song, sung to each other. |
