From the Houston Children's Chorus series comes an historic story-anthem Mene Mene Tekel Upharsin. Remember the story of Daniel and the hand writing on the wall at Belshazaar's feast? Thanks to the clever words of J.Paul Williams and the creative music of Craig Curry any choir that sings this anthem will never forget the story or the words written on the wall.
