For NewCAJE (Virtual) 2020
August 2, 2020

What song do you want to sing? 
One of equality and understanding 
One of confession and forgiveness
What song do you want to sing? 
One that is filled with wisdom 
One that inspires insight
What song do you want to sing? 
One that brings a smile to our faces
One that engenders a desire
To move forward, to dance 
To cross the narrow bridge 
Without fear.   
What song do you want to sing? 
One that tells the story of our past
One that can chart to course of our future
As learners, as teachers, as guides, as leaders 
And as partners in confronting a challenging time
With the richness and resilience of the heritage
Which we so proudly share and practice. 
What song do you want to sing? 
One that enlivens our spirits
One that opens our hearts
So that the presence of the One
Will suffuse our souls
And engulf us with warmth and love. 
What is the song we want to sing? 
One that will resound beyond 
Our lives limited by circumstance
One that will sustain connections 
And Friendships 
Between us
that can transcend miles and years
An hymn of reunion. 
An anthem of healing and hope. 
That is the song that WE want to sing.
