Project Proposal:

Sweet Briar Rap

For my final project I am creating a rap based off of the Sweet Briar song.  I am a member of the a cappella group on campus, Sweet Tones, and we sing it for many Sweet Briar functions.  We have joked in rehearsal numerous times that it would be fun to do a rap following the verses of the song.  It would be a a complete turnaround of the song to perform them together.

The Sweet Briar Song

Sweet Briar, Sweet Briar, flower fair,
The rose that on your crest you wear
Shall never fade, but always bear
Thy beauty, O Sweet Briar!

Sweet Briar, Sweet Briar, thy columns white
Shine on thy hills a beacon light
Of truth, to burn with radiance bright
Forever, O Sweet Briar!

Sweet Briar, Sweet Briar, we sing to thee.
May thy foundations ever be
Strong as thy hills, they purity
That of thy rose, Sweet Briar!
