Traditional words and music, arranged by Sally DeFord
The words to this traditional hymn can be found in many different forms. I have used the version below simply because it is my favorite.
This arrangement calls for piano, organ and flute, and you really do need to use them all--the arrangement loses most of its interest if even one of the parts is missing. The organ score is about the difficulty of a typical hymn. The piano accompaniments for the SSA and SSATB versions are virtually identical, and the same organ and flute scores are used for both. The master score contains the SSATB vocal parts, not the SSA..
For the recording, Heather sings from the SSA score, but some liberties are taken with the presence or absence of the harmonies. |
