"The rocks and stones themselves would start to sing..."... is a line from a song in the Broadway Musical of the seventies -- Jesus Christ: Superstar.

Do you recognize it? The chorus following Jesus Christ's proclamation is the choir singing "Hos ... Sann ... a ; Hey... Sanna Sanna Sanna Ho ; Sanna Hey; Sanna Ho Sanna Hey Superstar !!" or something similar.
This lyric has never left my head since seeing Superstar the Summer of '73 live on Broadway; high school senior graduation trip, thanks to parents.
The production was not wasted on this Texian, nope. That is thirty seven years ago, and it still is clamoring around up in me old belfry.
HosannaBesides a catchy tune: any thoughts amigos and amigas?
Hey Sanna Sanna Sanna Hosanna
Hey Sanna Hosanna
Hey JC, JC won't you fight for me?
Sanna Hosanna Hey Superstar
