On the list of activities was a performance by City High’s premium choir, Chamber Choir, singing “MLK” written by U2, supplemented by Dr. King’s “I Have A Dream” speech.
The Chamber Choir has been practicing the song since early September and also performed it at their last concert in October.
The song features Matt Kroeze and Hank Welter, both ‘14, with a duet, then segways into the speech. After the speech, the whole choir joins together to honor Dr. King.
MLK by U2
Sleep
Sleep tonight
And may your dreams
Be realized
If the thundercloud
Passes rain
So let it rain
Let it rain
Rain on him
