Within Cherished Walls...

a.k.a. the Centenary Song.

Sheesh, honestly, our throats are SO gonna break by the time the performance is over. What I'm talking about? Our choir team, of course. Apparently, we're going to be performing on the 4th of April and we're singing two songs. One of the songs we're singing is the Centenary Song, but I prefer to call it "Within Cherished Walls".

It's actually a nice song, I guess. It requires loads of stomach work cause Zen's always asking us to "Use stomach voice!! Don't use your throat voice!!"

Yeah...

Now I've got time, I'll give you the lyrics to the song...

If through these walls,
We can hear the stories long ago,
Those *censored* dreams
Their hopes and more...

And if through these walls,
We can see the days before,
We'll see the joy, the rise and growth
Every smile that greets hello...

Names may change and faces pass,
But the tune's the same we'll make it last,
We'll learn these words before
They come to pass...

*censored* in my heart,
Ten decades we've grown to love,
Add a hundred more, my heart will still belong,
Within these cherished walls...

Here on these walls,
I found meanings of love,
To conquer fears to wipe the sorrow tears...

And I learned of friends,
Learned to give a helping hand,
And when I'm lost they'll guide my way,
With God's will till the end...

Names may change and faces pass,
But the tune's the same we'll make it last,
We'll learn these words before
They come to pass...

*censored* in my heart,
Ten decades we've grown to love,
Add a hundred more, my heart will still belong,
Within these cherished walls...

Names may change and faces pass,
But the tune's the same we'll make it last,
We'll learn these words before
They come to pass...

Within these walls we've built our lives,
For a hundred years it stayed with us,
Let's keep it standing... strong...

Ciao!
