Sunday, February 23, the HUUGs, (the Highschool UU Group), lead the worship. Their topic is “Resilience through CommUUnity”. The Choir will be helping them out with a Gospel-style number titled “Let It Roll Off Your Back” by Heather Pierson. Susan Panttaja will help us learn some new songs and remember some old songs. All music is chosen by the young folks.
“Let It Roll Off You Back” goes:
If you’re feelin’ sad and blue, let it roll off your back,
Or if you’re feelin’ angry…, let it roll off your back.
‘Cause happy times are comin’ back to you.
Just give it some time, so until then just smile,
And let it roll off your back, you gotta let it roll off your back.
If people can’t see things your way, let it roll off your back,
Or if you can’t understand what people do, let it roll off your back.
‘Cause everybody’s doin’ the very best
They know how to do. Sometimes you have to smile,
And let it roll off your back, you gotta let it roll off your back.
Well I haven’t lived a long time, but I know this much is true,
When the world is getting’ you down, there’s only one thing to do,
You let it roll off your back
You gotta let it roll off your back
You gotta let it roll off your back
You gotta let it roll off your back
Well, if you made a mistake or two, let it roll off your back,
Or if you can’t do a thing about it now, let it roll off your back.
‘Cause tomorrow you can take with you
The things you learn today. So until then just smile,
And let it roll off your back, you gotta let it roll off your back.
You gotta let it roll off your back
You gotta let it roll off your back
You gotta let it roll off your back
