Words for Camp Song Dem Bones Gonna Rise Again

Since songs were such a large role of camp, I have dedicated a page for us to post the lyrics.  Information technology'southward but fitting that Cathy Zanarini 's picture be on meridian of this page as so many of us associate her with the music.

Dem Basic (lyrics provided by Cathy Zanarini)

The lord He thought He'd brand a man
(Dem bones are gonna rise again)
So he took a little h2o and he took a little sand
(Dem bones are gonna ascension again)

I knowed it knowed information technology, indeed I knowed information technology camper
I knowed it – whee! – dem bones are gonna rise once again

Now Adam he was terribly blue
(Dem basic are gonna rise once more)
He didn't know exactly what to exercise
(Dem basic are gonna rise again)

I knowed it knowed information technology, indeed I knowed it camper
I knowed it – whee! – dem bones are gonna rise again

So the lord took a rib from Adam's side
(Dem bones are gonna rise again)
And He fabricated Miss Eve to be his bride
(Dem bones are gonna rise over again)

I knowed it knowed it, indeed I knowed it camper
I knowed it – whee! – dem bones are gonna rise again

He put them in a garden off-white
(Dem bones are gonna ascension again)
He thought they'd be almost happy in that location
(Dem bones are gonna ascent again)

I knowed it knowed it, indeed I knowed it camper
I knowed it – whee! – dem bones are gonna rise again

Apples, peaches, pears and such
(Dem basic are gonna ascension again)
Only of this tree you must not touch
(Dem bones are gonna ascension again)

I knowed it knowed information technology, indeed I knowed information technology camper
I knowed it – whee! – dem basic are gonna rise again

At present Eve took a walk by the tree ane day
(Dem bones are gonna rising once again)
And a ophidian popped upward in her way
(Dem bones are gonna rise again)

I knowed it knowed it, indeed I knowed it camper
I knowed information technology – whee! – dem bones are gonna rise once more

"Now, Eve, this fruit tastes mighty fine"
(Dem basic are gonna ascension once more)
"Simply accept 1, the lord won't heed"
(Dem bones are gonna rise again)

I knowed it knowed it, indeed I knowed it camper
I knowed it – whee! – dem basic are gonna rise again

And so Eve took a pick so took a pull
(Dem basic are gonna rise once more)
And so she filled her apron total
(Dem bones are gonna ascension again)

I knowed it knowed it, indeed I knowed it camper
I knowed information technology – whee! – dem bones are gonna rise again

Now Adam and Eve they tried to hide
(Dem bones are gonna rise again)
But the lord looked downward, and them he spied
(Dem bones are gonna rise again)

I knowed information technology knowed it, indeed I knowed it camper
I knowed it – whee! – dem bones are gonna rising again

"Now Adam you lot must exit this place"
(Dem bones are gonna rise again)
"And earn your livin' by the sweat of your face"
(Dem bones are gonna ascension once more)

I knowed it knowed it, indeed I knowed information technology camper
I knowed it – whee! – dem bones are gonna ascent over again

And then Adam took a selection and then took a plow
(Dem bones are gonna rising again)
And that's why we're all workin' now!
(Dem bones are gonna rise again)

Another song!

Today, while the blossoms nonetheless cling to the vine
I'll gustation your strawberries, I'll beverage your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all laissez passer abroad
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today I'll be a swell, and I'll be a rover
Y'all'll know who I am past the songs that I sing
I'll feast at your table, I'll sleep in your clover
Who cares what the morrow shall bring Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine
A one thousand thousand tomorrows shall all laissez passer abroad
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today I tin't be contented with yesterday'due south glory
I can't live on promises wintertime to jump
Today is my moment, at present is my story
I'll express mirth and Ill cry and Ill sing Today, while the blossoms notwithstanding cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today. Today, while the blossoms yet cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet vino
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today

Hither are some treasures that Jane McCarthy, camper from 1975, 76 and 78 dug upwardly! (Lyrics by Steven Bard).

Morning Vocal

Start the day

bright sun a shining

Good morning daybreak

Skilful morning to y'all Lord

Walk me downwards

Streets of thine wonderment

fill me up with thine everlasting joy

As I await back

dorsum upon my living

the days I longed for a

love in my heart

I was a drifter

I was a wonderer

Looking for my life

Just looking for my start

 and I was such a long long ways from abode

 playing with reality

 And then my maker, He brought me habitation

  I was lost, He set me free

Now today I have reason for living

Reason for loving and reason for giving

I was a drifter, I was a wanderer

Looking for my life, just looking for my start

Blue Skies in the summer
the clear sparkling water
where we love to wander
through white birch and pino.

Information technology is this that nosotros cherish
through the long winter snow
to return to lake Hamlin the place nosotros dear then

The spirit of friendship
will stay with us always
the time volition not linger
we cannot remain

In the nights we remember
golden campfires glow
nosotros volition never forget y'all wherever we get

Runnin' down that old camp route
To the shipp's cycle
We're together once again

See last year's campers encounter some new
You'll get by
Everyone's a friend….

Why, oh why, must we say goodbye
Will I run across y'all here next year?
Will we laugh together again?

BARGES

Out of my window looking in the night

I can run into the barges flickering light.

Silently flows the river to the bounding main,

And the barges besides go silently.

Barges, I would like to go with you,

I would like to canvas the ocean blue.

Barges, have you treasures in your hold?

Do you fight with pirates brave and bold?

Out of my window looking in the night

I can see the barges flickering light.

Starboard shines greenish and port is glowing cherry-red

You tin see them flickering far ahead.

Barges, I would like to go with you,

I would like to canvass the ocean blue.

Barges, accept you treasures in your agree?

Practise you fight with pirates brave and bold?
