"Joy to the WORLD; Our December Prayer"
The choir will be traveling abroad this year. Gifting there music to the world. Think about the month of December and how we try to give to our friends, family, and the community.
For a sketchbook assignment make a drawing of something that represents the vibe of the season, cd, and message of the music on the CD. Your artwork may appear on the cover of the CD!
One song they will be performing is 'Our December Prayer", by Idina Menzel.
Click the picture to listen to the song.
Read the lyrics...maybe images for the CD cover will come to mind.
In the touch of a friend, in the breath of a child,
In the eyes of a soldier coming home to his mother's grateful smile,
In the sight of falling snow, and the memories it brings,
In the season when you find some peace, in the simple tender things,
Open your heart and look around,
listen listen
Hear the song within the silence,
See the beauty when there's nothing there,
Sing a song within a silence that hope and love are everywhere,
And when the quiet night is falling watch an angel dancing in the air
To the song, the song within the silence a December Prayer,
A December Prayer.
In the strength of your hand as it holds unto mine,
And the promise that we're not alone in this place and time,
In the gifts that you give I am humbled and amazed
Far beyond this day and time of year
We are in a state of grace.
Open your heart and look around,
listen listen
Hear the song within the silence,
See the beauty when there's nothing there,
Sing a song within a silence that hope and love are everywhere,
And when the quiet night is falling watch an angel dancing in the air
To the song, the song within the silence a December Prayer,
A December Prayer
Listen listen
Hear the song within the silence,
See the beauty when there's nothing there,
Sing a song within a silence that hope and love are everywhere,
And when the quiet night is falling watch an angel dancing in the air
To the song, the song within the silence a December Prayer,
A December Prayer.
