Poet Langston Hughes writes, “A long time ago, an enslaved people heading toward freedom made up a song: Keep Your Hand on the Plow! Hold On! The plow plowed a new furrow across the field of history.

That tree is for you, and me and everybody.†This is for an advanced choir with an accomplished accompanist.
