[Oe List ...] Looking for a song or songs

[Debra Harris]

I believe there are audio files on the Archives. There is also singing on tapes in the basement that haven’t been uploaded onto the Archives as yet. The media section in the basement  BBC as a whole needs work!
This could be a mini project for someone or a small group, to get selected tapes uploaded. There are also VHS recordings of projects & town meetings and of course, lots of talks. How much of the IERD was recorded, does anyone know?
Ganesh & Karen have uploaded talks but it takes time. Some of the time can be spent doing something else simultaneously, while playing the tape to upload onto a jpg file. It’s an area that could be worked on by 1-3 people, as well as funded by another group of individuals (or possibly write a small grant?). We can off source some of the work to professionals , but it costs. 
Wonder if it could be a project or group project for student/s majoring in media or digital creations?

You inspired me, Jean. I was thinking of singing 🎶 acapella the ones from IRON BOY (about 20 selections at the beginning of each chapter) as video posts on my new Substack channel. I’ve got the baritone version of the Gene Marshall bass voice. It’s not my boys choir voice of the 1960s Iron Boy days, but hey, we’re all getting older. To answer Jim’s question, I have the full lyrics to this one and all the other songs we used to sing in the Order/EI/ICA from my saved dog-eared songbooks. I’m traveling now, but will forward them when I get home.

You are in luck. About 20 songbooks were recently scanned and added to the ICA Global Archives website:  https://icaglobalarchives.org/collections/exploring-inner-life/history/songs/.  Good luck!

We may have written words a couple of times to John Denver’s “Annie’s Song”. David Marshall used part of one in one of the early chapters of his memoir (see photo attached). 
Anyone have the full lyrics to this or another version?  
Thank you
