Closing: A Unitarian Ascription, James Curtis
(to the tune of Finlandia)

May I who live be true unto my being,
One in my thoughts, my words and every deed.
I was born free!
An ever-changing river is what I am,
And Neighbor, so are you.
We have the power,
Through laughter love and tears,
To face all fears, and live forever free.
