Graces
Singing graces can be a way for a Girl Scout to remember that she is
doing service for something much bigger than herself - even if she never
does a service project. Often, these graces are only sung during camp meal
time or a special dinner for recognitions or honoring an official holiday.
However, they can be sung whenever the mood of gratitude hits you.
Alleluia, Amen
Alleluia, Amen.
Alleluia, Amen.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Amen.
