To any Girl Scouts out there

Hi: My cousin is looking for the piano music to a GS song. I have searched online and and through all of the song books in my library. I have not had any luck. She wants it for her mother's memorial service on July 12. Her mother was a GS leader for her from Brownies through Seniors. She thought it would be really nice to have some GS songs at the service. The song is: The golden sun sinks in the west; Great spirits call Girl Scouts to rest We’ve had our work, we’ve had our play, And we have lived in the Girl Scout way Each day we’ve done some new good turn: Someone to help, not praise to earn We’ve lived our lives with this in view, And now we pledge our scoutship true Upon my honor I will try To do my duty to God on high To help all other people out And to live the life of a true Girl Scout. If you have the music for this I would be happy to pay for a copy. We just need one for the pianist. Thanks. Ann Greene Eau Claire District Library greenelib@yahoo.com

I wonder if it's the same tune as the Strauss song "The Golden Sun Sinks in the West." The sheet music for that is available at: http://books.google.com/books?id=KqYQAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA295&lpg=PA295&dq=%22golden+sun+sinks+in+the+west%22+strauss&source=bl&ots=PCd6HfLCvU&sig=193t7SF1BkJIo34kMZ-K4S7EC9w&hl=en&sa=X&ei=DqOtU8L3HNiiyAT36oGwCQ&ved=0CB0Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=%22golden%20sun%20sinks%20in%20the%20west%22%20strauss&f=false Mary Ferguson, Collection & ILL Mgr.
