Imagine prepping for a rehearsal where you're going to teach a new hymn, then discover that you don't have access to the full version with the melody and harmony...all you have is the melody and text. Well, I found myself in that position and decided to record how I decided to add harmony to this hymn. Along the way, I discuss some of my reasonings...but I really was under a deadline to finish this in time to start rehearsal.
