When You Believe
BYU Noteworthy
A tribute to the combined power of faith, this stirring song from the animated film ‘The Prince of Egypt’ seemed a perfect opportunity to invite our friends from the BYU Women’s Chorus to join us. Acting as the children of Israel singing a Hebrew prayer of gratitude, we sing, “In Your love, You lead the people You have redeemed.”
When You Believe
Stephen Schwartz's When You Believe won the Academy Award for Best Song in 1999, and John Leavitt gives his signature, dignified touch to his arrangement, adding strings and percussion to moving effect. The Hebrew prayer in the middle section of the piece is a great opportunity for cultural exploration.
