If you're looking for an inspirational song to listen to today, we suggest "Give Me Your Tired." We first heard it on this video slideshow of the Statue of Liberty. The music was arranged by Barbara Klaskin Silberg, with the lyrics based on the famous sonnet "The New Colossus" by Emma Lazarus. To view the slideshow and hear the complete song, click here. To read the lyrics or purchase the song/sheet music, click here.
My mom passed along this fun NPR link. "Twenty-one years ago, Morning Edition launched what has become an Independence Day tradition: hosts, reporters, newscasters and commentators reading the Declaration of Independence." To listen to the reading, click here.
Wow! What patriotic cuties. I want to be on their side in a skirmish.
