A musical piece I used to play when I was 8 years old.

Title: You'll Never Walk Alone
Composer: Richard Rodgers
Lyricist: Oscar Hammerstein II

This a show tune from the 1945 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Carousel, that was written in 1945. I was 8 years old when this came out, and I started accompanying the high school choir with that piece in 1950, when I was 12, starting high school, because I had skipped 2 grades in grade school. I've always enjoyed the lyrics, reminding me that God is with me every minute of the day. And I'm so thankful for that!

Lyrics:
When you walk through a storm
Keep your chin up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark

Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Tho' your dreams
Be tossed and blown
Walk on
Walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone

When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark

Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Tho' your dreams
Be tossed and blown
Walk on
Walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
