As the gray ashes fade, So may be our errors.

Ode to the Fire As this campfire warms the circle


As the flames grow upward, So be our aims, Let the spirit of scouting warm the whole world.
As the red logs glow, So be our endeavors,
As the gray ashes fade, So may be our errors.
As this campfire warms the circle Come, come, light up the fire
Let the spirit of scouting warm the whole world. Come, come, light up the fire.
Come, come, join in the ring.
Here find dreams to inspire,
Come, come, light up the fire Stories to tell,
Come, come, light up the fire. Music to sing.
Come, come, join in the ring.
Here find dreams to inspire,
Stories to tell, Campfire song
Music to sing. Camp fire's burning, camp fire's burning
Draw nearer, draw nearer,
In the glowing, in the glowing
Campfire song Come sing and be merry
Camp fire's burning, camp fire's burning
Draw nearer, draw nearer,
In the glowing, in the glowing Oh, how lovely is the evening
Come sing and be merry Oh, how lovely is the evening
Is the evening
When the bells are sweetly ringing
Oh, how lovely is the evening Sweetly ringing
Oh, how lovely is the evening Ding, dong, ding, dong, ding, dong
Is the evening
When the bells are sweetly ringing
Sweetly ringing Make new friends
Ding, dong, ding, dong, ding, dong Make new friends, but keep the old.
One is silver, the other is gold.
A circle is round, it has no end.
Make new friends That's how long, I will be your friend.
Make new friends, but keep the old.
One is silver, the other is gold.
A circle is round, it has no end. Kumbaya
That's how long, I will be your friend. Kumbaya my Lord, kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, kumbaya
Kumbaya Oh Lord, kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, kumbaya Someone's singing Lord, kumbaya

Someone's singing Lord, kumbaya Someone's laughing, Lord, kumbaya
