"Today"-the long version
This is one of my favorites! Luckily, I volunteered to baby-sit a few of the officer notebooks for the summer for sisters who live far away and couldn't fit them in their luggage, so I have a songbook here (if you want any other lyrics, let me know!). Here is the "long version" of Today:
Today as we gather in our sisterhood,
Remembering the moments and times that were good,
To you Alpha Gamma Delta, we'll always be true,
Knowing the love and the friendships we've gained,
Through you.
We'll be together in friendship forever,
You'll know who we are by our badge set in pearls.
After we've gone and we drift far apart
Alpha Gam will live on in our hearts.
Today, while the roses still cling to the vine,
I'll be your true sister and you will be mine,
A million tomorrows shall all pass away,
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine,
Today.

Hey DW, in the song book, does it have sheet music? We have a girl in our chapter who can play the violin I'm trying to track down sheet music for her.

The song was written by Randy Sparks and recorded by the New Christy Minstrels who began long before many (most?) GCers' parents had even met.

Here are guitar chords for "Today."

Bought a John Denver cd in the past because he sang Today.
I wanted some members to listen to it because I felt they were singing tooooo fast, lol.
Not sure if they have slowed it down these days.
