173. Ribbon 5: Going

3. Woyaya 
Words & Music by Sol Amarifio (title in the Ga language of Ghana)
​Composed in 1971

We are going, 
heaven knows where we are going, 
but we know within.

And we will get there, 
heaven knows how 
we will get there, 
but we know we will.

It will be hard, we know, 
and the road will be muddy and rough,
But we'll get there, 
heaven knows how 
we will get there, 
but we know we will.

Wɔyaya, Wɔyaya, 
Wɔyaya, Wɔyaya.

80. Go Dark
Words from Wendell Berry
Music ​by Kate Thomas

To go in the dark with a light
is to know the light.
To know the dark, go dark; 
go without sight,
and find that the dark, too, 
blooms and sings,
And is traveled by dark feet, 
and dark wings.

72. Unknown (Finding Home)
Words & Music​ by Anni Zylstra

143. Love Stays
Words & Music by Laszlo Slomovits

Change comes and goes, love stays.
Change comes and goes, love stays.
Life is filled with such mysterious ways.
​Change comes and goes, love stays.

29. Hope Lingers On
Words & Music​ by Lissa Schneckenburger

1. My mother, when love is gone (2x),
in our darkest hour, hope lingers on.
My father, when peace is gone (2x),
in our darkest hour, hope lingers on.

Chorus:
I will not hate, and I will not fear;
in our darkest hour, hope lingers here.

2. My sister, when equality’s gone…
My brother, with tolerance gone…
​
3. My love, when honor is gone…
My country, when justice is gone…

58. When We Are Gone
Words & Music by ​Starhawk and Anne Hill

When we are gone, they will remain:
wind and rock, fire and rain.
They will remain, when we return;
the wind will blow and the fire will burn.
