I liked it then, and it's still pretty good - what I call a square hymn (structurally). But you have brought new life to it. <br /><br />There are so many old hymns that are truly inspired, but need a new vehicle to bring them to the 21st century. Thanks for doing a beautiful job on this one. <br /><br />I have the printed music but I don't know how to attach it here. I can send it if you like - email me at ted@groat.com.<br /><br />Blessings! <br /><br />Ted Groat Hello Chad:

Much better than the arrangement I grew up with, although there is a strong, comforting memory there.<br />If you'd like the one I know, I think I can find it, but I'm so glad you didn't find it until you wrote this...

You're way too good at this for it to be something that you only do occasionally (as Mandy said)<br /><br />And yes, it's going on the iPod again.<br /><br />Re the end of the chorus...I can see why you may not be happy with it, but I like the way it kind of trails away...just like an evening does.

And yes, it’s going on the iPod again.
