我正在为我建立家庭学校发呆



Spike Lee的School Daze的开幕曲目。 由Morehouse College欢乐合唱团演唱。 我没有这首歌或电影。 我只是想向世界献出如此美妙的歌曲。 。

  1. I'm buildin' me a home
    I'm buildin' me a home
    I'm buildin' me a home
    I'm buildin' me a home
    This earthly heart
    Is gonna soon decay
    And the soul's gotta have, oh Lord, somewhere to stay

    When you hear me prayin'
    I'm buildin' me a home
    When you hear me prayin'
    I'm buildin' me a home
    This earthly heart
    Is gonna soon decay
    And the soul's gotta have, oh Lord, somewhere to stay

    There's too many dangers Towards the stairs
    I have already gone
    But his grace fills my heart with fear
    and I know he's gonna bring me home

    When you hear me moanin'
    I'm buildin' me a home
    When you hear me moanin'
    I'm buildin' me a home
    This earthly heart
    Is gonna soon decay
    And the soul's gotta have, oh Lord, somewhere to stay

    When you hear me shoutin'
    I'm buildin' me a home
    when you hear me shoutin'
    This earthly heart
    Is gonna soon decay
    And the soul's gotta have oh Lord somewhere to stay
    And my soul's gotta have, oh Lord, somewhere to stay

  2. I still remember how School Daze encourage me to enroll at Morehouse in 1990. Mr. Uzee Brown my music professor knew I had a voice and wanted me to sing but I refused. I still laugh when I see this movie and here this song today.

  3. This song was composed in 1950 by

  4. ..I must say this film gave me a crack in the head..and it really should have had a more significant impact on colorless self awareness in life..it plays to the socially (un) conscience weakness some folks seem to never get about themselves..like Spikes best films..it emphasizes the power of ignorance to shed light on intelligence..and it inflates and brings home the simple fact that we're all just people.. IMO..for all of those who have woke up..there's an awful lot who haven't..and fwiw..the soundtrack is brilliant..espec.the Bill Lee stuff..

  5. Love this song right here. 

    Philippians 4:8 

    Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any moral excellence and if there is any praise, dwell on these things.

  6. Hard to believe in this day and age, we can be all culturally enriched, by TV. Beautiful song. All the comments here, b/c we were all effected the same way by this, well-restored my faith in society

  7. Negro spiritual along the lines of what Fisk Jubilee singer sang as distinguished from gospel. Spirituals mainly told of slave's struggles for freedom. "Go Down Moses" for example or "Were You There When They Crucified My Lord" and "Go Tell It on The Mountain" are others.

  8. Yo…This is it!!!! One of the most important social movies of our lives!!! Why are STILL fighting this light skinned / dark skinned fight!!!!! Its 2013! Are we ever going to " WAKE UP"???
