History and Song Notes

I’m So Glad I’m Here is an American folksong, and a lovely welcoming way to begin music time. You can add additional verses as well, and as they become familiar with the song, the children may enjoy inventing their own verses for the song as well. Some additional verses you may try include:

Peace brought me here, peace brought me here, peace brought me here, here today…

Joy brought me here, joy brought me here, joy brought me here, here today…

Love brought me here, love brought me here, love brought me here, here today…

I’m gonna dance while I’m here, I’m gonna dance while I’m here, I’m gonna dance while I’m here, here today…
