“ANGELS BEAT YOUR WINGS DIVINE”

PLEASE HAVE A LISTEN TO THIS TIMELY SONG. The song needs to fly. It can be found by clicking on ‘Poetry – lyrics’ on this website then scrolling to the bottom of that page and clicking on  ’Listen to the song here’. It was created during work on the Canada Council Grant ‘Have We Forgotten? The Hope Project’ through ‘Hermione Presents’ that marked the 90th anniversary of the battle of Vimy Ridge April 1917 – 2007.

The lyrics come from a longer poem written in the anguish I felt in March 2003 at the beginning of the Iraq war. The music was composed by Charlene Nafziger. It is sung by students who participated with the artists on this grant project. This audio clip is rough but heartfelt.
