Beautiful! You have certainly blessed this ‘76 WCC alumnus! Looking forward to singing with you next year as you join forces with the Bach Choir of Bethlehem. 👍
The sustain created such a large feel. It made me feel the vastness of the universe..The performance was so touching it brought tears to my eyes. BRAVA !!!!!
Sure on this shining night Of starmade shadows round Kindness must watch for me This side the ground On this shining night This shining night Sure on this shining night Of starmade shadows round Kindness must watch for me This side the ground On this shining night This shining night. The late year lies down the north All is healed, all is health High summer holds the earth Hearts all whole The late year lies down the north All is healed, all is health High summer holds the earth Hearts all whole Sure on this shining night Sure on this shining night Sure on this shining night I weep for wonder Wandering far alone Of shadows on the stars Sure on this shining night Of starmade shadows round Kindness must watch for me This side the ground Oh, this shining night This shining night The shining night Sure on this shining night Source: Musixmatch Songwriters: James Agee / Morten Lauridsen
