Hey bandsmen!
Here's the lyrics to the Finale for Radix!

I come before you today
And there's just one thing that I want to say
Thank you lord
Thank you lord
For all you've given to me
For all the blessings that I cannot see (Evian, Firdaus, Rui Ti walks out)
Thank you lord (Evian, Firdaus, Rui Ti dances)
Thank you lord (BAND runs out here.)

**With a grateful heart (Still running.)
With a song of praise
With an outstretch arm (Arm Swinging Set)
I will bless your name (Arm Swinging Set 2)
Thank you Lord (step 2-3 clap)
I just wanna thank you lord (step 2-3 clap)
Thank you lord (points and run off stage)
I just wanna thank you lord
Thank you lord

For all you've done in my life
You took my darkness and gave me your light
Thank you lord
Thank you lord
You took my sin and my shame
You took my sickness and healed all my pain
Thank you lord
Thank you lord

Hope this help in a way or another. We'll do a rehearsal soon!

If you guys want a recording of the song, just ask your Section Leaders/Band Leaders. (:

Section Leaders/ExCo members : Check your @preshigh.edu.sg email for the song! :D

See you guys soon!

With Love,

The (Concert) Committee

Hi band!

Remember to do the homework that Mr Sim gave and finish it before Tuesday.

Anyway, to find the template on your computer, there're different ways of doing so. The one that I wrote on the board that day was only for Microsoft 2003, the 2007 one works differently.

2003 Version:
- Press F1
- Search for "Music Staff Paper"
- Download the most suitable template and print it
*Remember, no pre-printed Treble Clefs allowed!*

2007 Version:
- Press on the button with Windows' logo on it
- Go to "New"
- Search for "Music Staff Paper" under templates
- Download the most suitable template and print it
*Remember, no pre-printed Treble Clefs allowed!*

Manuscript paper can also be bought from shops.

Have fun doing your work! :DDDD

Cheers,
BM(A)
