Kaylee Rodgers & Killard House Special School – Hallelujah
An evening pause: As noted at the webpage where I found this video, “Kaylee Rodgers has autism and ADHD, but has been growing in confidence with every performance after starting to sing at the age of just three.”
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Glorify Him !

Great singing by the little girl and her backing choir… however I really disagree with changing the lyrics to what is an essentially agnostic song to a religious one…
The late great Mr Cohen would not approve.
Lee S: I think you should take a breath and calm down. A little good will would also help.
There are plenty of beautiful gospel songs that the non-religious have rewritten to take the religion out of them. It isn’t a big deal, and no one should make a big complaint about it. The same goes for this song as well.
Strange how the narrow minds and cold hearts tend to pick apart such a wonderful and moving piece. The very word “Hallelujah” is from the Hebrew meaning “Praise the Lord”. To take a “secular” song and elevate it to such a grand and holy level is just wonderful. Kaylee and the School Choir have given the world such a beautiful Christmas gift. I am in the USA and Kaylee touched our hearts on Christmas day. Thank you to ALL those angels.
Hummmmm!….Lee S. is AMAZING! Anyone who can know the operation of someone’s mind, in this case “Mr Cohen would not approve”, must be psychic. How could you POSSIBLY know what Mr. Cohen would or would not approve of?. I get it….just another cranky individual who must find something to complain about in order to be happy. Thank you Kaylee and ALL the wonderful children of Killard School Choir. God bless them all.
