Story:
"Tis Sweet To Sing The Matchless Love" (Summer 2007)
The sacrament is such a sacred part of our worship. We rededicate ourselves to our baptismal covenants and remember the atonement, the whole reason we can return to God. Because of its sacred nature, I've always stayed as much away from sacrament hymn arrangements as possible, but couldn't resist mixing the two great tunes for this reverent text. In putting the two together for the third verse, I only slightly changed a few notes, hopefully keeping the spirit of each individual melody to make a great polyphony. The piano chords are very purposefully uncomplicated, simple, sacred. I never want to get in the way of the spirit.
