Bye Bye Blackbird

Arr. Brandon Martell

Im singin’ bye bye,
Im singin’ bye bye black bird
Pack up all my cares and woes,
Here I go
Singin’ Low
Bye bye blackbird

Where somebody waits for me,
Sugars sweet,
So is she,
Bye bye blackbird
No one here can love or understand me
Oh what hard luck stories they all hand me
Make my bed,
Light the light,
Ill arrive late tonight,
Blackbird bye bye

Im packin' my bags,
Takin' off to where I wanna be,
What I’ve wanted for a really long time
Bye bye blackbird
A little birdie told me,
“The future is bright and it starts tonight”,
Bye bye blackbird

No one here can love or understand me
Oh what hard luck stories they all hand me
Make my bed,
Light the light,
Ill arrive late tonight,
Blackbird bye bye

When October Goes

Arr. Paul Langford

The falling leaves drift by my window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips the summer kisses
The sunburned hands I used to hold

Since you went away
The days grow long
And soon Ill hear
Old winters song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

And when October goes
The snow begins to fly
Above the smokey roofs
I watch the planes go by
The children running home beneath a twilight sky
Oh for the fun of them
When I was one of them

And when October goes
The same old dream appears
And you are in my arms
To share the happy years
I turn my head away to hide the helpless tears

Oh how I hate to see October go
I should be over it now I know
It doesn't matter much how old I grow
I hate to see October go

Na,Na,Na

Arr. Mac Huff

Woke up
whistling like the wind blows,
looking out my window
Just to see the shine
Oh oh oo, way oh
Maybe
you might call it crazy
how I'm acting lately
Skipping through the sky
Oh oh oo, way oh

I see so clearly
why I'm always feeling free
Oh oh oo, way oh

So I sleep when my dreams
looking like reality
Oh oh oo, way oh

Don't it feel like!
Na, na na na na na na
na na, na, na na na na

I know
where the greener grass grows,
you'll just have to follow
To the other side
Oh oh oo, way oh

So let's go
tiptoe on a tight rope,
falling's only natural
Just spread your wings and fly
Oh oh oo, way oh
You'll see so clearly
why I'm always feeling free
Oh oh oo, way oh

So I sleep when our dreams
looking like reality
Oh oh oo, way oh

Don't it feel like!
Na, na na na na na na
na na, na, na na na na

Bring it down like
"Oh, way, oh"
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Make it sound like
"Oh, way, oh"
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
All around like
"Oh, way, oh"
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Sing it loud like
"Oh, way, oh"
Ah oo, oo.

Don't it feel like!
Na, na na na na na na
na na, na, na na na na

Ain’t No Mountain High Enough

Patrick Johns

Listen, baby
Ain't no mountain high
Ain't no valley low
Ain't no river wide enough, baby

If you need me, call me
No matter where you are
No matter how far (don't worry, baby)
Just call my name
I'll be there in a hurry
You don't have to worry
Cause baby there

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you, babe

Remember the day
I set you free
I told you you could always count on me, darling
From that day on, I made a vow
I'll be there when you want me
Some way, some how
Cause baby there

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you, babe

Music Down in My Soul

Arr. Moses Hogan (1957-2003)

Traditional African-American Spiritual

I hear music in the air, I can feel it in the air,
There must be a God somewhere.

Over my head, I hear music in the air.
Over my head, I hear singing in the air.
There must be a God somewhere.

I’ve got this music down in my soul,
and it fills my heart with the joy of the Lord.
I’ve got it, joy everlasting!
I’ve got it, peace everlasting!
I’ve got it, love everlasting!

Love in my heart! Oh yes I’ve got
Peace in my soul! Oh yes I’ve got
Joy in my heart, joy today!

Love is a Rain of Diamonds

Gwyneth Walker (b.1947

Kilee Borchers
Izabel Mobley
Meadow Schaefer
Katelynn Toomey, soli group

Poetry by May Swenson (1913-1989)

Love is a rain of diamonds in the mind
the fruit of the soul sliced in two
a dark spring loosed at the lips of light
under-earth waters unlocked from their lurking
to sparkle in a crevice parted by the sun
a temple not of stone but cloud
beyond the roar of the heart and all violence
blue permanence

Ave Maria

Jacob Arcadelt (1507-1568

Kayla Huebner, student conductor

Traditional Latin Text

Ave Maria, gratia plena,
Dominus tecum;
Benedicta tu in mulieribus,
et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Jesus.
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei,
ora pro nobis

English Translation

Hail Mary, full of grace,
The Lord is with thee;
Blessed art thou amongst women,
And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
Pray for us.

Wild Embers

Melissa Dunphy (b.1980)

Poetry by Nikita Gill (b.1989)

We are the descendants
of the wild women you forgot
We are the stories you thought
would never be taught.

They should have checked the ashes
of the women they burned alive.
Because it takes a single wild ember
to bring a whole wildfire to life.

Still I Rise

Rosephanye Powell (b.1962)

Rachel Hanna & Hannah Cegla, solos

Though I have been wounded; aching heart full of pain.
Jus’ like a budding rose, my bloom is nourished by rain.
Haven’t time to wonder why, though fearful I strive.
My pray’r and faith uphold me ’til my courage arrives.

Still I rise as an eagle, soaring above ev’ry fear.
With each day I succeed, I grow strong an’ believe
That it’s all within my reach; I’m reaching for the skies,
Bolstered by courage, yes, still I rise
Yes, it’s all within my reach;
I’m reaching for the skies,
Yes, still I rise.

Gentle as a woman; tender sweet are my sighs.
Strength is in my tears and healing rains in my cries.
Plunging depths of anguish, I determine to strive.
My pray’r and faith uphold me ’til my courage arrives.

Though you see me slump with heartache;
Heart so heavy that it breaks.
Be not deceived, I fly on bird’s wings, rising sun its healing rays.
Look at me, you see a woman;
Gentle as a butterfly.
But don’t you think, not for one moment, that I’m not strong because I cry.
