Let My Voice Be Heard
for SSA choir, body percussion, and piano
“Let My Voice Be Heard” provides multiple means to engage young singers (or singers young at heart). Foot-stomps, hand-claps, a grooving piano accompaniment, and fun-to-sing syncopated melodies all coalesce into a song fun to sing and to hear. Youth choirs will immediately feel welcomed by the pop style. Moderate ranges and singable phrases keep the difficulty level low, making the piece even more inviting. Lastly, the positive message of the text affirms the importance of each and every singer: let your voice be heard!
Text
Hear my voice over the sounds of the rapids.
Hear it when the sky is night.
Echoing over the sun and moon.
Can you hear my voice?
Hear my voice, may it be loud as the thunder.
Hear it shake the powerful earth.
Strong as the waves crashing onto the shore.
Can you hear my voice?
Let my voice be heard.
O lei o lei o lei o lai
Let my voice be heard.
O lei o lei o lei o lai
I have mountains to move and the world needs what I bring.
Let my voice be heard.
O lei o lei o lei o lai
Silence me not. I will still speak.
– Lucia May (Adapted by Emily Drum)
