This rendition of the lovely folk tune is in memory of Laura Vogel, who loved the melody so much she composed her own lyrics for it (which are included in the folio). Lifting, expressive, and rhythmic, the music encourages the listener to enjoy and be grateful for each day of life. This rendition of the familiar tune is set in F Major and is 145 measures.
