We need to sing songs about freedom and justice,

Pray for each other,

Collect for mutual aid,

Have potluck,

Listen to our neighbors,

Have non-violence trainings

Be a space where people can connect

Make space for creativity

Show how fun and beautiful this can be

Give courage

Keep alight a flaming chalice of hope

My, like most congregations, have moved to live streaming the whole service and have been using a document that lists all of the copyright info for the hymns in the grey book. AND how to get permission to sing these songs on a live stream. It also breaks down the layers of the copyright to the songs, for example which songs are in the public domain but not the lyrics and which songs have the lyrics and the melody in public domain but not the harmony part.

To the best of my knowledge this document was created by the late Rev Scottie Johnson. May she rest in power and may we light a chalice in her honor.
