Embedded youTube VIDEOS
Although this Canadian hymn is found in a number of hymnbooks, it is not popular on youTube. I was able to find only three performances, all in the key of G. The melody is fairly simple, and easy to play on the button accordion.

Verses 2 - 4:
|
Deep in our hearts there is a common purpose;
Deep in our hearts there is a common goal; Deep in our hearts there is a sacred message, justice and peace in harmony. Deep in our hearts there is a common longing; Deep in our hearts there is a common theme; Deep in our hearts there is a common current, flowing to freedom like a stream. Deep in our hearts there is a common vision; Deep in our hearts there is a common song; Deep in our hearts there is a common story, telling Creation that we are one. |
