Notes:	Sing in a relaxed way, adding percussion to the accompaniment. A bass could add a Bolero rhythm. The unity of brothers and sisters can be embodied in the way the song is sung. The first two lines can be sung by women, with an echo sung by men beginning at the pick up to the third. (In the second line the echo will need to be adapted, singing all eighth notes on “gift it is when” and moving right into “sisters and brothers” together with the lead part.) The coming together at the text “when sisters and brothers join hands . . .” coincides wonderfully with the combining of the two voice parts. The treble parts may be sung as a simple two-part harmony, beginning on the third line.
