Our Song

This song was written for our church's 250th celebration in 1991.

SO HERE WE ARE (Music & Lyrics by Mark S. Corliss)

So here we are

Gods love to share

With friends around us everywhere

Nothing can compare

(Chorus sang after each verse by congregation)

(Side 1) Hey there! ^^ Neighbor! ^^ What ya doin over there

(Side 2) Come to join the celebration, songs of joy are in the air

(Side 1) Jumping up and down, I saw you! Couldnt quite make it out

(Side 2) We had to praise the Lord today, come see what its all about

(everyone) Come see what its all about

In love, the ones before us, built this church upon the land

They struggled with faith we would carry on, and bear it hand in hand

Weve seen some cold, cold winters, and we huddled in the pews

Through Indian raids and World Wars, we prayed for better news

How we prayed for better news

This church has grown in structure, but our fellowship is where it starts

Leaders preaching Gospel, and those talents who have touched our hearts

This rooms been filled with sadness, Childrens laughter, songs, and strife

For when we come together, this building rocks with life

Yeah, this building rocks with life

And now what lies before us, Its only God who understands

And He who will love and guide us, in our hopes and dreams and plans

History shows the friendships, that have flourished in the past

Today well make some new ones, and forever they will last and last

Yes, forever they will last and last

(After last chorus)

So here we are

Gods love to share

With friends around us everywhere

Nothing can compare

(^^ Clapping or stamping)
