Imagine
By Shawn Mitchell
Re-imagined!
John Lennon’s universal song that speaks to deep human longing is adapted to bring in the divine in this gospel infused version sung by Shawn Mitchell and featuring the Work Study Performing Arts Choir.
John Ludwig and Shawn Mitchell collaborated on Imagine and it truly turned into a providential thing of beauty. The kids of the WorkStudy Performing Arts Choir truly represent the who, what and why of this song as they echo the phrase, “and the world will be as one.”
“Just imagine a world free of racism. A world free of war and illness; a world where everyone loves and respects one another as everyone involved in this project does. Please listen to the message in this song. We pray that the words will resonate in your heart”. – Shawn Mitchell
“The world is more connected and yet more fractured than ever. However, in Imagine we sing about eternal joy and peace perfected that comes from aligning with God’s better plans. We simply want to bring our anthem for all to all, seeking unity and a brotherhood that evaporates what should be trivial differences like skin color. We hope this day you’ll join us”.
– John Ludwig
