FOREST VOICES CHOIR
Singing ‘Line-Up’ in Forest
Gate
Forest Voices Choir that
Ruth Rikowski is a member of sang 3
songs for the turning on of the Christmas lights event. The lights were turned
on by Robin Wales, the Mayor of Newham, on 5th
December 2015. Two of the songs were Christmas Carols and the other was a
lovely song advocating peace throughout the world. It is called 'Line-Up'
(by Helen Yeomans).
Here are the words for 'Line-Up':
Line up, line up
Wo oh
For your place in the
peaceable kingdom
Yeh, yeh, yeh.
Line up, line up
Wo oh
For your place in the
peacable kingdom
Yeh, yeh, yeh.
Line up, line up
Wo oh
For your place in the
peacable kingdom
Yeh, yeh, yeh
Bring your songs of
freedom for a brave new world
Let me hear you
Sing, sing now.
Line up!
The rich and the poor
The weak and the
strong
The humble and the
proud
Won't you sing out
loud
The merciful of heart
The sinner and the
saint
The forgiven and the
wrong
Find your voice in
song
No differentiation
between black and white
Let the Arab man stand
by the Israelite
There ain't no creed,
there ain't no colour
But the blood that
flow thru your sister and brother.
*Repeat lines up to
'Line Up'.
Ruth has loaded the video of the Forest Voices Choir singing 'Line-Up' on to YouTube.
This is the first item that she has ever loaded anything on
to YouTube! Hopefully, more will follow!
