Alan
has crafted a superb
arrangement of this
treasured hymn that first
appeared in the Sacred
Harp Hymn Book of 1844.
After a free introduction
by choir and trumpet, the
first two stanzas
introduce the tune in
strict tempo while the
trumpet outlines melodic
fragments above the
chorus. In each
succeeding verse we find
imaginative varied choral
textures with trumpet
prominently
displayed.
