How I wrote the composition Hope to process a miscarriage, or how I wrote I Will Lift My Eyes at a time when multiple family members, both young and old, were being diagnosed with cancer. No matter life’s challenges, music has always been an outlet for me to cope and heal. It has helped me to persevere and fight through some of life's most difficult moments, ultimately making me a stronger person. The world can be a challenging place, but each of us are warriors—armed with the gift to sing, and filled with the fire, passion, drive, and grit to conquer anything. CREDITS: "The Gift to Sing" For SATB and piano Music by Zachary J. Moore Words by James Weldon Johnson Chamber Choir, Goose Creek High School Emily Reeves Bohl, conductor Ken Myers, collaborative pianist Josh Bohl, recording engineer Zach Moore, mixing and mastering  less
