Celebrate Together
Words & Music by Lisa Silver.
AC, IRC, OCC, RAC, GSOC, SWC
1st Verse
If I touch one someone with my song
Somewhere in this whole world round,
And that someone somewhere starts to
sing along,
That would be the sweetest sound.
And if I make a little magic with my words,
In something that I write or say;
Then I know my message is bound to be heard.
And I'll give something to the world in my
own way.
Just a spark of inspiration
Lights a fire deep inside
I'll use my imagination
To create my work with pride (And...to Chorus)
Chorus
Celebrate the girl inside of me,
Celebrate the woman I will be,
1 will sing out my own melody
When we celebrate, celebrate together.
2nd Verse
There's a world of wonders to explore
And I hear it calling out to me
Now I'm getting ready everyday to open the door
Make my way and see what I can see!
I'll fly the sky and sail the ocean,
Climb the mountain to the top!
Now my life is set in motion,
Here I go no I won't stop! (I'll...to Chorus)
Bridge
Standing in a circle with my sisters,
Arm in arm with friends
Girl Scouts together, united,
I pledge once again (...to Chorus 2 X)

An Irish Blessing
Public Domain / Old Gaelic Prayer
GBC, OCC
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rain fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again someday,
May God hold you in the palm of God's hand.
May the memories that we have shared
Linger on and on.
Campfire's Burning

Campfire's burning, campfire's burning
Draw nearer, draw nearer,
In the gloaming, in the gloaming
Come sing and be merry
Each Campfire Lights Anew
COC, gsoc
1.   Each campfire lights anew
The flame of friendship true
The joy we've had in knowing you
Will last our whole life through.
2.   And as the embers die away
We wish that we could ever stay
But since we cannot have our way
We'll come again some other day.

Plant A Tree
Words & Music by Melinda Caroll

We are the caretakers of this earth
And each generation has a right to their birth
Into a world that is clean and bright,
With forests of green and the golden sunlight.

For we are growing showing that we care.
And each light is glowing, knowing as we share
We're giving it back to the earth. Plant a Tree

And as each little seed begins to reach for the sky,
With roots deep and strong, and so it beautifies.
We give it the love and the care it needs.
How grateful the earth for the gift of a tree

We are the forest, we are the seed
We are the force that can supply the need.
Planting our future, one by one,
Shining under the sun.

It's important to me, it's important to you,
So amazing what one simple act can do!
When we plant a tree and for all it's worth,
We're putting the green back in this beautiful earth!

Everyday Angels
words & music by Melinda Caroll
LATC, RAC, GBC
1st Verse
Everyday Angels walk this world with me.
Everywhere we go, they move so easily.

We may even pass them by
on a sidewalk or a street,
Cause Everyday Angels move lightly on their feet.
2nd Verse
Everyday people, 're looking for a smile
Cause everyone needs one, every once in a while.
Heaven knows, the storms may blow,
till you think you've reached the end.
That's when those Everyday Angels quietly descend.
1st Chorus
Everyday angels, take every opportunity
To shine a light, or lend a hand,
share a smile with the people they meet.
This is for those everyday angels,
who brighten up somebody's day.
You know it's all right, if we just try,
We're all just learning to fly.
3rd Verse
Everyday angels are not so hard to see.
Everyone knows one, they look like you and me.
It's only right to celebrate,
these unselfish acts of love.
You know it doesn't take an angel
to come down from above.
2nd Chorus
Everyday angels, take every opportunity
To shine a light, or lend a hand, share a smile
with the people they meet.
This is for those everyday angels, the sunshine
in somebody's day.
You know it's all right, if we just try,
We're all just learning to fly.

Let There be Peace on Earth
by Sy Miller and Jill Jackson
EDPC, GBC, OCC, GSWC
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 our Creator,
Children all are we.
Let us walk with each other
In perfect harmony.
Let peace begin with me,
Let this be the moment now.
With every breath 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.
(Repeat once)
