Oh Darling, Darling Stand By Me

Our final concert for the MCC this year has the theme of "Why We Sing." I couldn't help but to think on the songs that we'll be singing this concert, how their words and the music has so deeply touched me, the entire time I was watching that.
I always get a little choked up when I sing Joseph M. Martin's "The Awakening" most especially at the the lyric, "May music never die in me." As much as I bitch about the group and how I sometimes feel out of sync with everyone there (spiritually vs musically), I feel blessed to be able to raise my voice in song every week. And to perform the music for the people who come to our concerts.
May music never, ever die in me and forever let my spirit sing.
