This is a very beautiful of a traditional hymn. It is simple, and the chord progression is appropriate.

My daughter wanted to sing this with me and learn it for performance. I knew right where to look! Thank you! Very nice with 2-part women or a duet of 2 women, either with a similar tone color or the upper part slightly brighter.

Well arranged. As far as I can make aout spot on accuracy. Well within my range of singing and guitar chords relatively easy. All in all, worth every cent.

I have been coming here for years and am always satisfied with the selections and quality of music. I can usually find the songs I want here when other places dont have it.

Easy to download and print. Works as sold, easy to get the key you need, much easier than going to the music store.
