Look to this day!
For it is life, the very life of life.
For yesterday is but a dream.
And tomorrow is only a vision.
But today well lived makes
every yesterday a dream of happiness
and every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, therefore, to this day!
Such is the salutation of the dawn.

A Cappella Choir

During high school I had the opportunity to sing in the A Cappella Choir. My senior year our choir director decided we needed more of a challenge. So in addition to presenting the stage version of "Showboat," we started singing Randall Thompson compositions. "Alleluia" is one that we sang at a Christmas Choir Festival. My mother said it was like listening to angels sing. Although she was probably a biased observer, we were always given high marks by the judges. The video below is that piece sung by a group that, in my memory, we were an equal to. (May I suggest you turn off the Tabernacle Choir at the bottom before listening to this fine choir.)
