Yes, we did sing that one!
I just can't remember singing Song of the Soul in the Order.

The words of the first verse are from the hymn, "Open my Eyes,  That I May See", 
the first and last phrase of the first verse, by Clara H.  Scott, 1841 - 1897, 
according to The Methodist Hymnal. We probably did  sing this hymn in the Order.

It's a Chris Williamson song on her album, 'The Changer and the Changed',    a 
classic in the women's music tradition from the 70's. Released on Olivia    
Records (which was THE Lesbian independent music distributor), it sold a half    
million copies. Don't know whether Chris is the author or whether it's    
"traditional". As far as I can remember, it's not an Order song.
