Stevie Wonder made it to number one with this song in 1973 and it's ranked as No. 74 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. Paul Langford has turned this tune on its head with a fabulous a cappella version for mixed voices imitating the original recording's instrumental and vocal style. A programming dream for a cappella singing.

Premiered at Carnegie Hall for the Shawnee Press 75th Anniversary, this powerful and inspirational work, now set for TTBB voices, sings of “hope” described through the phases of life, such as a newborn's cry, the laughter of children, the ashes of the fire of love that has died, the quiet comfort of a dream. Set to haunting and dynamic music with piano or optional orchestra, the work comes to a moving conclusion of “hope is not lost...hope will arise.” Gorgeous, moving and timely.
