Patrick Henry Hughes was born blind and without the ability to fully straighten his arms and legs, making him unable to walk. Additionally, two steel rods were surgically attached to Patrick’s spine to correct scoliosis.

Despite the overwhelming circumstances, Patrick has overcome his physical issues to excel as a musician and student. He is usually a straight ‘A’ student, having received only 5 ‘B’s’ since 6th grade up to and including his sophomore year of college.

Too Old To Die Young

If life is like a candle bright
Death must be the wind
You can close
Your window tight
And it still comes flowing in
So I will climb the highest hill
And watch the rising sun
And I pray that I
Don’t feel the chill
Till I’m too old to die young

Let me watch my children grow
To see what they become
Oh Lord don’t let
That cold wind blow
Till I’m too old to die young

Thank You For The Musc: ABBA

I’m nothing special, in fact I’m a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you’ve probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
’cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I’m so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud

So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me
