[edit] O’Canada

O’Canada! Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command
With glowing hearts we see thee rise The True North strong and free!
From far and wide, O’Canada, We stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O’Canada, we stand on guard for thee
O’Canada, we stand on guard for thee!

[edit] Kin Song

Here we are together once again,
One and all a happy bunch of Kin;
Leave your cares and troubles for a while,
Let your face break forth in smile!
Look around, grab someone by the hand,
They're your friends, the finest in the land;
Now all set, let's shout to beat the band –
KINSMEN, KINETTES and KIN!

[edit] Kin Grace

Happy to meet.
Sorry to part.
Happy to meet again.
May the Lord make us true Kin
In our thoughts and deeds
And make us truly grateful
For the food we receive.
AMEN.

[edit] Kinette Song

Here we are together once again,
Happy in the family of Kin,

One and all, let's rasie our voices high
KINETTES, KINETTES, KINETTES!
