Hush! Fire's Burning
(source: "Campfire Activities", Girl Guides of Canada, 1993.)
(spoken, not sung)

Hush! Let all be still...
Listen to the sounds of the night.
The gentle rustling of leaves
And the dying wind.
The faraway lap of waves on the shore,
The hum of insects,
The whispers of friends.
The crackle of the fire
Which calls us to sing...

(begin the song "Fire's Burning" or other appropriate opening song)
