An exquisite new vocal solo arrangement of this classic hymn. The medium HIGH vocal range is low B to high F. The piece begins with a cappella voice for the first phrases. The voice is then joined by a simple piano accompaniment. The accompaniment varies in complexity and keys as it supports the voice and the message of the text throughout the piece. The fifth and sixth verses are spoken with piano underscoring and the number concludes with a stirring final verse.
This musical arrangement by Larry R. Beebe is based on the hymn A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief, with text by James Montgomery and music by George Coles.
