[HANASHIR:10174] RE: Web of Women

[Meris <meris...>]

I'm looking for a song that I heard at least 5/7 years ago at caje either by
Linda Hirschorn or maybe Margie & Ilene sang it.   Maybe Fran or Judy knows?
It's called "Web of Women."  Anyone got a clue?
Thanks,
Meris

At our synagogue, we also sing Craig Taubman' Circle
Song, learned at Hava Nashira this year, and we
re-adapt the words in a second verse to celebrate
either Rosh Hashanah or Rosh Chodesh:
The world is a circle, a never ending circle
a never ending circle going round and round.
The moon goes up and the sun goes down
and the world goes around and around and around:

Refrain: I am (we are) a part of the circle , a part
of the circle going round and round. 2x

Rosh Hashanah (Rosh Chodesh), part of the circle, part
of the circle going round and round,
Another year (month) starts right now, and we go
around and around and around.

Our whole congregation is singing it, from tots to
seniors - thanks Craig!
Call me if you want it over the phone:(847)279-0473
And, Shirona - thanks for the Moon Sees Me words - my
family was trying to remember them just last week!
