Song of My People

This is a song by Leo Watt that he says would work for entrance and as a recessional and I think he is quite correct.

The original says “gather in St Eugene’s name”, his home parish, but I’ve made the suggested substitution.

You can purchase the sheet music following the instructions here.

1

The song of my people will surely be heard,

When two or three gather in God’s holy name.

The song of my people I will not ignore,

For your life and your giving will be blest evermore.

2

The song of my people will live on and on,

When you work together in God’s holy name.

The song of my people is my joy to hear.

In the hearts of the faithful, know that yes, I am near.

3

The song of my people will rise up this day

When you pray together in God’s holy name.

The song of my people will echo through time.

Know that your life has value, know that you, you are mine.

4

The song of my people will surely be heard,

When two or more gather in God’s holy name.

The song of my people I will not ignore,

For your life and your giving will be blest ever more.
