Saturday, October 27, 2007Inscription of Hope ~ The Year Was 1943 Quoting from a Russian Folk Tune, composer Dr. Z. Randall Stroope arranged a stunning choral and instrumental piece for the Nebraska Choral Arts Society and Children's Chorus called "Inscription of Hope." Based on fragments of Jewish text found on a cellar wall in Cologne, Germany during during the Holocaust in World War II, it is believed to have been scrawled by a child hiding from the Nazis. Although the rendition you hear at this link is performed with adult voicing, Inscription of Hope is pure magic when sung by children. I have conducted this piece for children's choir and can testify to that. Imagine the circumstances that led to such an epitaph. Here are the lyrics to Stroope's Inscription of Hope. I believe in the sun even when it is not shining. And I believe in love even when there's no one there. And I believe in God even when He is silent I believe through any trial there is always a way. But sometimes in this suffering and hopeless despair My heart cries for shelter to know someone's there But a voice rises within me saying 'hold on my child' I'll give you strength, I'll give you hope Just stay a little while I believe in the sun even when it is not shining And I believe in love even when there's no one there And I believe in God even when He is silent I believe through any trial There is always a way May there someday be sunshine May there someday be happiness May there someday be love May there someday be peace. ![]() There is similar suffering all over the world today in varying forms of atrocity. Perhaps when we no longer need monies to buy bombs and fuel tanks we can feed all the hungry children. Note: The photo above is one of the most famous Holocaust picturesd ever taken.
