On The Loose

Have you ever watched a sunrise,
turn the sky completely red?
Have you slept beneath the moon and stars,
a pine cone for your bed?
Do you sit and talk with friends,
though not a word is ever said?
Than you're just like me,
and you've been,
On the loose.

Chorus:
On the loose to climb a mountain,
On the loose where I am free,
On the loose to live my life the way,
I think my life should be,
for I've only got a moment,
and the whole world yet to see.
I'll be looking for tomorrow,
On the loose.

There's a trail that I'll be hiking,
just to see where it might go,
many places yet to visit,
many people yet to know,
for in following my dreams,
I will live and I will go.
In a world that's waiting out there,
On the loose.

CHORUS

So in search of love and laughter,
I am travelling 'cross this land,
never sure of where I'm going,
for I haven't any plans,
and in time when you are ready,
come and join me,
take my hand,
and together we'll share what's out there,
On the loose.

CHORUS

Sing Along Here!

Sing a Song of Canada

Chorus:
Sing a song of Canada,
let your spirit show,
send your voice across the land,
and let the whole world know,
it's a land of endless beauty,
of people proud and free,
so,
Sing a song of Canada,
our home from sea to sea.

It's a song of crowded seagulls,
and mountains towering high,
gentle hills and rolling praries,
beneath the Northern skies.
Woodlands, lakes and rivers,
so much variety,
mountains, lakes and seagulls,
blended all in harmony.

CHORUS

Its a song of friendly people,
who built this land, who tried,
many races, creeds and colours,
all working side my side.
Farms and towns and cities,
so much diversity,
Our culture almost blended,
blending all in harmony.

CHORUS

Sing Along Here!

Like an Eagle

Born in the mountains,
the wind blowing free,
given by nature the wisdom to see,
power to heal and the strength to command,
child of our native land.

Chorus:
Fly far, like the eagle,
Be strong, like the eagle,
Soar high, like the eagle,
Live long, like the eagle,
When we come together in harmony,
like the eagle,
We'll be strong and free.

Circling and heeling and timing the sky,
looking at life through a far seeing eye,
searching and seeking and finding it there,
spirit of earth and air.

CHORUS

One sky above us, and one earth below,
life all around us and things that we know,
nothing to shadow the light of the sun,
everywhere we are one.

CHORUS

Walk Around

Rivers that sparkle,
and rush along free,
forrests so tall and green,
dressed in their finery,
Canada fair,
none are as lucky as we.

Chorus
Ah, Walk around,
look around,
take the time to say,
how lucky I am that I live in this land,
of Canada today.

All kinds of people from far away lands,
landed in True North,
Customs and cultures we're willing to share,
as true Canadians.

CHORUS

Pioneers suffered to settle this land,
the new world was its name,
fairness and freedom they wanted for all,
let's live up to what they claim.

CHORUS

Miles of highway are ours to explore,
an ever changing view,
four different season we know and enjoy,
for the richly, weak or poor.

CHORUS

Guide Law Song

I challenge myself to the Guiding law,
to be honest, and true,
to be wise in the use of resources I have,
to respect myself and others too.

To know and to use my gifts and skills,
to respect my common world.
With the courage and strength,
that we share in the joys,
of the Guiding sisterhood!

As We Trek Along Together

As we trek along together,
as we trek along.

Shall we sing a song together,
shall we sing a song.

Love life, laughter, sorrow,
who know what will tomorrow,
who knows and who cares,
as we trek along.

As we trek along together,
as we trek along.

Shall we sing a song together,
shall we sing a song.

Though the wind is weary,
still our heart will be cheery,
as we sing a song,
as we trek along.

Let Us Sing Together

Let us sing together,
let us sing together,
one and all our joyous song.
Let us sing together,
one and all our joyous song.

Let us sing again and again,
let us sing again and agian,
let us sing again and again,
one and all our joyous song.

Everywhere Around the World

Everywhere around the world tonight,
Guides are singing,
'round the campfire light.

Sing along here!

Pax Lodge Song

We wish you love,
we wish you light,
we wish you colours soft and bright,
we wish you light,
we wish you love,
we wish you peace on the wings of a snow white dove.

And with our sisters by our side,
we learn to lead, we learn to guide,
we clear the path, we pave the way,
to peace on earth, to a brighter day.

We wish you love,
we wish you light,
we wish you colours soft and bright,
we wish you light,
we wish you love,
we wish you peace on the wings of a snow white dove.

Sometimes the road,
is hard and long,
and yet together we are strong,
and as we weave life's tapestry,
each colour blends in harmony.

We wish you love,
we wish you light,
we wish you colours soft and bright,
we wish you light,
we wish you love,
we wish you peace on the wings of a snow white dove.

Wherever we wander,
wherever we rome,
Pax Lodge will always be our home,
a place where strangers soon are friends,
I'll meet you there where the rainbow ends.

We wish you love,
we wish you light,
we wish you colours soft and bright,
we wish you light,
we wish you love,
we wish you peace on the wings of a snow white dove.

We wish you love,
we wish you light,
we wish you colours soft and bright,
we wish you light,
we wish you love,
we wish you peace on the wings of a snow white dove.

Our Cabana

'Neath the grand Sierra Madre,
on a plain in Mexico,
lies our beautiful Cabana,
where Girl Scouts and Guides go.

So come then to see the mountains,
the cactus and sunny skies,
hear the cricket in the evening,
see the white moon arise.

When you see the warm red roofs,
you think of hearts that glow with cheer,
and the walls of sturdy stone work,
stand for friendship so dear.

Each day there is filled with laughter,
each evening is filled with song,
and our stay at our Cabana,
gives us memories life long.

When we go to our Cabana,
we will find ourselves at home,
there's a greeting smile so friendly,
and a handshake so warm.

So come now to our Cabana,
world friendship to increase,
and carry to your homeland,
international peace.

Our Chalet

High up,
high on the mountain,
we founded our Chalet.
High up,
high on the mountain,
we founded our Chalet.

Its sloping roof and wide,
shall shelter us,
without a care,
and each Girl Scout and Guide,
shall find a welcome there.

High up,
high on the mountain,
we'll go to our Chalet.
High up,
high on the mountain,
we'll go to our Chalet.

Our simple life is free,
our hearts are light,
our songs are gay!
We ever shall remember,
the choice of our Chalet.

High up,
high on the mountain,
we founded our Chalet.
High up,
high on the mountain,
we founded our Chalet.

And this,
its dedication shall never fail,
nor be undone!
Each race, each creed, each nation,
beneath its roof are one.

Make New Friends

Make new friends,
but keep the old.
One is silver,
and the other's gold.

A circle's round,
it has no end.
That's how long,
I want to be your friend.

I have a hand,
and you have another,
put them together,
and we have each other.

Make new friends,
but keep the old,
one is silver,
and the other's gold.

This song can be sung as a round.
