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

Still I rise as an eagle, soaring above eve'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. Still I rise yes, still I rise. Strength is in my tears and healing rains in my cries. Still I rise yes, still I rise. Plunging depths of anguish, I determine to strive. Still I rise yes, still I rise. My pray'r and faith uphold me 'til my courage arrives, Still I rise yes, still I rise.

Though you see me slump with heartache; Heart so heavy that it breaks. Be not deceived I fly on birds' 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. Yes, still I rise as an eagle, soaring above eve '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.

By pray'r and faith, still I rise, Yes, Still l rise as an eagle, soaring above eve'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 l rise! Soon Ah Will be Done

Chorus: Soon ah will be don' A-1vvid de troubles ob de wort', Goin' home to live wid God.

I am sitting here wanting memories to teach me to see the beauty in the world through my own eyes. You said you'd rock me in the cradle of your arms. You said you'd hold me 'til the storms oflife were gone. You said you'd comfort me in times like these and now I need you. Now I need you ... And you are - gone. Since you've gone and left me, there's been so little beauty, but I know I saw it clearly through your eyes. Now the world outside is such a cold and bitter place. Here inside I have few things that will console. And when I try to hear your voice above the storms of life, then I remember that I was told. I think on the things that made me feel so wonderful when I was young. I think on the things that made me laugh, made me dance, made me sing. I think on the things that made me grow into a being full of pride. I think on these things, for they are true. I thought that you were gone, but now I know you're with me. You are the voice that whispers all I need to hear. I know a "Please", a "Thank you", and a smile will take me far. I know that I am you and you are me, and we are one. I know that who I am is numbered in each grain of sand. l know that lam blessed, again and over again. I am sitting here wanting memories to teach me to see the beauty in the world through my own eyes.

Babethandaza

Sin nje ngemi thandazo We are like this because of prayer O mama bagudala, Babethandaza. O our ancestors, they were praying Siyahamb 'ekukanyen 'kwenkos ', We are marching in the light of God. Siyahamba, hamba, We are marching, marching, Siyahamb 'ekukanyen 'kwenkos '. We are marching in the light of God. Set Me As A Seal

Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm; For love is strong as death; Jealousy is cruel as the grave, For love is strong as death; Flashes thereof are flashes of fire, A very flame of the Lord. Many waters cannot quench love, Neither can the floods drown it; For love is strong as death. Set me as a seal upon thine heart. - Song of Solomon

Bring Me All Your Dreams

Bring me all your dreams, you dreamers. Bring me all your heart melodies that l may wrap them in a blue cloud-cloth away from the too-rough fingers of the world. - Langston Hughes

No Mirrors In My Nana's House

There were no mirrors in my Nana's house, and the beauty that l saw in everything, was in her eyes. There were no mirrors in my Nana's house, so l never knew that my nose was too flat and l never knew that my skin was too black and l never knew my clothes didn't fit and l never knew these were things that l 'd missed And the beauty in everything was in her eyes. And I was intrigued by the cracks in the walls, the dust in the sun looked like snow that would fall the noise in the hallway was music to me, the trash and the rubbish would cushion my feet and the beauty in everything was in her eyes. The world outside was a magical place, l only knew love and l didn't know hate, the beauty in everything was in her eyes. Child, look deep into my eyes. - Ysaye Maria Barnwell I Dream a World

I dream a world where man No other man will scorn, Where love will bless the earth And peace its path adorn I dream a world where all Will know sweet freedom's way, Where greed no longer saps the soul Nor avarice blights the day. A world I dream where black or white, Whatever race you be, Will share the bounties of the earth And every man is free. Where wretchedness will hang its head And joy, like a pearl, Attends the needs of all mankind• Of such I dream, my world! - Langston Hughes

Dreams

Hold fast to dreams For if dreams die, Life is a broken-winged bird, That cannot fly.

Hold fast to dreams For when dreams go, Life is a barren field, Frozen with snow. - Langston Hughes

Calvary

Calvary! Surely He died on Calvary! Can't you hear Him calling His father? Surely He died on Calvary! Hear Him saying, "It is finished!" I Can Tell The World

I can tell the world, yes, about this I can tell the nations, yes, that I'm blessed. What my Lord has done, Tell him the conqueror has come, And He brought joy to my life. My Lord done just what He said He healed the sick and He raised the dead. He lifted me when I was down. He placed my feet on solid ground. Oh Lord he brought Joy that momin', when He saved me. That momin', when He blessed me. I'll tell it, how He brought this joy to my soul.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS

Since the founding of the University, singing has been an important part of Lehigh's cultural traditions. From the founding of the Glee Club in the 1860's to the formation of our 21st-century women's ensemble, Dolce, Lehigh students have taken time to create harmony in song. Today, Lehigh University Choral Arts performs around the world, appearing in New York at Carnegie Hall and Avery Fisher Hall, the Schubertsaal at the Vienna State Opera House, St. Petersburg Philharmonic Hall (Russia), Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall (Taipei) and the Berlin Philharmonic Hall. Students of all majors, faculty, staff, alumni and singers from the Lehigh Valley community participate in the Music Department's four choral groups: the University Choir, the men's Glee Club, the women's ensemble Dolce, and the symphonic Choral Union. Past performances include Beethoven's Missa solemnis, the Britten War Requiem, a fully-staged version of Bach's Matthiiuspassion with the professional chamber choir The Princeton Singers and Baroque orchestra, and a collaborative performance of the Monteverdi Vespro della beata vergine (1610)with the internationally acclaimed ensemble, Chanticleer. Lehigh Choral Arts performs works of all eras and cultures, frequently premiering compositions by faculty, students, and other newly commissioned works. Most recently, Lehigh Choral Arts made its Carnegie Hall debut in 2014, performing Steven Sametz' s choral symphony, Carmina amoris.
