Welcome

I arrange hymns on the piano in my spare time. These songs are completely free and are here for you. The only thing I get out of doing this is the hope that other people will enjoy it. As I am LDS (aka mormon), a number of my arrangements are specific to my faith. However, I also have a number of arrangements of other traditional hymns that are common among most Christian denominations. If you like what you find here, please share this website with your friends. Also, please leave comments. It's the only way I know if you enjoy it or not.

This hymn has been part of the LDS hymnal since 1851. The text of this hymn was written in 1846 by English Mormon convert William Clayton (1814-1879). The melody for this hymn came from a popular English folk song "All is well". Clayton was among the first Mormon pioneers to make the trek from Nauvoo, Illinois to Utah. The text of this song was written while on the trail of that journey in response to news of the birth of his son back in Nauvoo (1). The original hymn words and music in SATB format is available here.

Of note, while this hymn is originally LDS, it can also be found in the hymnal for both the United Church of Christ and Seventh-day Adventists (2).

  11. It looks like you have had requests for the sheet music for 3 years now. I would love to pay for the sheet music for this arrangement. Many sites have them download. Since we can play a recording in Sacrament meeting, it would be great to have the sheet music. It is an amazing arrangement and you have an incredible talent. I hope you will make this arrangement available for purchase or download soon.

  12. The link to download the MP3s form MediaFire is working just fine for me but the sheet music is not. I am living in Austria right now and have very little access to LDS sheet music and I've been asked to play in church. I would love to play this arrangement but can't seem to download it. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

  13. Hi Blants,

    The reason you can't get sheet music for this song is because it hasn't been written out yet. Hopefully someday, but realistically it won't be anytime soon. However, please feel free to try some of my other arrangements that do have sheet music written out. Good Luck!

  21. Spencer, any chance you've written out sheet music for this yet?

    I've been asked to sing a solo in Sacrament Meeting in July and I was so hoping to use a variation on your arrangement for the accompaniment. It is amazing and suits my vocal style and tone very well.

    Thanks! -- Aaron
