Hayes, Mark: One World

This wonderful pop ballad by Mark Hayes is inspiring on every level. Musically it is reminiscent of a sumptuous Broadway musical ballad, with a dramatic introduction, intimate first verse, soaring chorus, and blockbuster ending. This song is a call to unity and brotherhood and tolerance for all. It is suitable for any high school, college, or community chorus, and could be used by church choirs as well. It would make a perfect closer to a concert and would work for graduation or baccalaureate services.
