So, we were driving down the road here in Atlanta singing along to #Beethoven9 wondering, "Who is this?" Turns out it was us! π Thanks @prestonsxm for the play! Did you know B9 is the single most recorded work by R. Shaw in his lifetime? There are 6 B9's prep-ed by RS in total!
Be near me, Lord Jesus
I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever
And love me I pray
Bless all the dear children
In Thy tender care
And fit us for heaven
To live with Thee there
