Description:

From the Revival collection (octavo packet G-9405; spiral-bound G-9538), this arrangement uses the traditional tune DIX in a fresh and inviting way. For added texture (as with all of the pieces in Revival), the final stanza of this hymn can be sung in unison, and includes an alternate harmonization of the accompaniment with a soprano descant.
