New lyrics for July 10 with permission from Humbird:
Today we are together again (2x)
Let us circle in close
like a hoop with no end
For today we are together again
For the ones that we love who are gone (2x)
We remember their stories
and we sing their songs
For the ones that we love who are gone.
Today we are singing again. (2x)
Let’s raise up our voices,
let the harmonies blend
For today we are singing again.
Everybody Rejoice, from “The Wiz”
Music and lyrics by Luther Vandross
-Here’s the arrangement sung by our Multae Voces Festival Chorus. EVERYBODY will sing along on the chorus.

Lyrics for the chorus:
Can you feel a brand new day? (4x)
And you might want to learn this awesome verse:
Hello world
It’s like a different way of living now
(Thank you world)
We always knew that we’d be free somehow
In harmony
Let’s show the world that we’ve got liberty
It’s such a change
For us to live so independently
Freedom, you see
Has got our hearts singing so joyfully
Just look about
You owe it to yourself to check it out
Can you feel a brand new day? (4x)
