From the mouths of babes
In this video (best seen at the link), young girls aged 6-8 do a beautiful rendition of the National Anthem.
This was forwarded by Jim Skinner, a very patriotic veteran. The person originally sending it said:
This was at a Texas Tech Basketball game, February 9th. The National Anthem is sung by five young ladies (ages 6-8). You have never heard it performed better than this! An entire arena remains completely silent throughout the song. You could hear a pin drop. The two young ladies on the right are six years old. The two in the middle are seven and the one on the left is eight.
Over the years, some has suggested we change our national anthem, because this one is so hard to sing well. But, when it's done right, it's beautiful. If this rendition doesn't inspire you, you simply don't love this great country of ours enough.
