exhiliaaaration is the breeze
I'm just puzzling this out:statement has two different senses--one is financial (a bank statement) and the other is a description of a form of speech. It just occurred to me that the two together make a figure of speech.. the banking terms-statement, term and soberly (who's more sober than bankers) contrast with exhiliration and enchanted

Others have mentioned singing this song in choir. I am a director planning to teach it to my students this year. For those interested, the version I plan to use is by Neil Ginsburg, and is published by Heritage Music Press. JWPepper.com is an excellent resource to find this song.
