Very beautiful! It has many images for me. I can imagine myself sitting at a table reading newspaper and listening it. Think to the stories in my mind and gave a smile to myself as a gift. There are many things in it to discover.

Simply beautiful, Vincent! Hugs from Berlin, Suzanne

Absolutely wonderful! Stately and lovely....

A marvelous tune, nobly written and perfectly performed!

Our Time – Music and Lyrics by Vincent Kennedy
Sung by Moate Community School Choir 
Conducted by Lorna Duignan, 
Accompanist Giselle Foley
Commissioned to celebrate the choir winning the All Island School Choir Competition in 2014

This was our time. 
One of the best times of our lives. 
We had a dream,  
We dreamed it every day and every night. 
We found our inner confidence, 
We nourished it 
With tenderness 
Til we were set. 
And we believed,
Yes we believed,
Oh we believed in ourselves.

We had each other. (Have each other.)
We had our friends,
And families too.
We had great teachers, (Have great teachers,)
Directing us the whole way through.
Surrounded by such loveliness
We worked so hard
Till we set
And they believed,
Yes we believed.
We believed in our dream.

No matter what we do
Or Where we go
We always will remember you
This was our time

John Fitzgerald Kennedy - The Torch Still Burns Brightly

'Music has been a faithful friend: always there to uplift, distract, colour and comfort. I write music to enrich life and take my inspiration from many sources and possibilities, like a bee using the nectar of different flowers to produce a unique honey.' Vincent Kennedy
