The music was originally written for a collaboration on a SongU challenge; however, the lyricist left SongU before we could complete the song. I then wrote my own lyrics and submitted the song to a feedback session conducted by Alan Roy Scott. Alan made a few adjustments to the structure of the music and said that the lyrics needed a re-write. I submitted the revised song to another session and Alan said he was now happy with the music (indeed, he said that the chorus kept going around in his head) but he felt that the lyrics still needed work; in fact, he felt that I should make it a children's song. I saw a pitch for a children's choir on SongU and specifically re-wrote the lyrics for this pitch. I suspect that the choir in question was really an adolescent choir (or perhaps they just didn't like the song) but I never heard from them. I liked the idea of a song about joining a children's choir but I had to re-write verse 2 which was specific to the pitch. What you hear is the song that was submitted for the pitch but a more generic lyric for verse 2 is included in parenthesis in the lyrics section.
