NOTES ON THE SONG
Many, many of my concerts involving children have begun with this song. But it is equally appropriate for use by adults and it works well liturgically - eg as a Processional hymn. Chorus-verse interludes could be shortened for live performance.

This song is the final track on my 'Growing in God' album, which I like to think is my most useful album - suitable for all ages. In recording you hear, I involved a secondary school choir as well as a primary school group. In other recordings on the 'Growing in God' album, I also involved an adult choir.

In addition to the four verses heard here, the 'Growing in God' music book also includes four other verses I have written for * Christmas, *Easter ... and *Social Justice occasions.

lyrics

TOGETHER AS ONE

CHORUS: Together as one. Together as one
A people of light and a people of faith.
We gather in love together as one-
Come together!
Come let us gather together as one.

1. Love one another, that’s what you said
You are our father, our brother and friend.
Sharing your peace and preparing your way
We see the dawn of your day. CHORUS

2. We are the branches, you are the vine
Part of each other, so we should be kind.
Living the love you have given to us
Rich in your love we can say. CHORUS

3. You make us welcome - “Come as you are
Come to the feast, be you from near or far”
Sharing your table, the wine and the bread...
“Everyone’s welcome”, you said. CHORUS

4. And when we gather, you will be there
Calling your family to love and to care.
You are our journey, the start and the end.
You will be with us always. CHORUS
