Mario Lanza - I'll Walk With God - St. Joan of Arc

Details

Description

Mario's beautiful voice is here in combination with paintings which depict the blessed life of Saint Joan of Arc.
Upon reflection, the song lyrics seemed to me to fit her life story.
This song was suggested to me for upload by Derek Gale. May it please him and my other viewers.

The pictures of Mario Lanza are from his film, The Great Caruso. It is available for purchase from Turner Classic Movies.
