Young people often know how to speak to the heart of matters more clearly than adults. Here, in the words of seventh graders, we hear that we all have voices singing to us, inspiring us and leading us to evolve. We learn that our own individual voices are important, make us creative, make us unique, and deserve to be celebrated. The music is vintage Papoulis in rhythmic elements and world style, and is accessible for younger voices. 10910969 SA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2.25 lLWalk in Jerusalem Just-a Like John—arr. e Robert W.

Kyrie: Mother, Sister, Blessed, Honored" in the score, this gentle and lyrical two-minute piece is a prayer for humility and awareness. The form and spirit of the "Missa Gaia" is the traditional Mass combining words that speak of human beings' relationship to the Earth.

Dean, Wendell Berry, and Gerard Manley Hopkins. 10953601 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2.05 Le We Sing a Jubilant Song—Joseph M. Martin. "We sing out a jubilant song.
