Beautiful Girl
Beautiful Girl is a celebration of the miracle of birth. It features a hymn-like choral opening, a 'Riverdance' inspired Irish sound, and rollicking 6/8 time. The opening soloist provides a show-specific narrative of a girl discovering her grandmother's keepsakes, which can be omitted for a more general application. Open your show with this vocal/visual showcase that shouts with joy!

Gather we here on this day Blessed grace has come our way (All my Grandma's stuff I've never seen) As we welcome her in style To our parish in the emerald isle (Marian Kelly, born 1918) Let the church bells ring Let the choir sing Welcome to this world A beautiful girl! Look at her! She's got her mother's eyes Look at her! She's got her father's cheeks What a life! Of wonder and surprise What a laugh! What baby talk she speaks What a beautiful girl! Celebrate! The world is brand new Celebrate! Stomp down the floor Celebrate! That's what we do Celebrate! The life that's in store For the beautiful girl This is a life This is a life well led All of the stories All the adventures All of those letters she read They all come alive now So we can all know The life that she'd live The love that she'd give The places she'd go As the years flow Celebrate! The year of her birth Look at her! Eight years of light Celebrate! Her time on this earth Look at her! Oh, what a sight What a beautiful girl! (Ben Wexler)
