Here We Are
by Ray Repp (RIP 2020)

Here we are, altogether as we sing our song, joyfully. Here we are, joined together as we pray we'll always be.

Verse 1
Join we now as friends and celebrate the brotherhood we share all as one.
Keep the fire burning, kindle it with care, and we'll all join in and sing.

Verse 2
Let us make the world, an Alleluia! Let us make the world a better place.
Keep a smile handy, have a helping and, let us all join in and sing.

Verse 3
Freedom we do shout, for everybody, and unless there is, we should pray.
That soon there will be one true brotherhood, let us all join in and sing.

Happy is the man who does his best

To free the troubled world

from all its pain, Join me with this man

And this big ole world

As we all join in and sing...

i guess one verse is missing, "happy is the erson who does his best to fill fill the trouble world...................... " i dont remmber it exactly

Musical drivel for those whose formation in the Catholic Church was superficial at best. Someone smoked too much weed when they wrote this.

Brings back such wonderful memories!

As far as what is posted on the Internet Ray Repp composed and
included Here we are in his album Mass For Young Americans (1965)
