A Hymn of Comfort

The offertory music we had planned for Sunday, March 15, was a piano arrangement of the hymn “Be Still, My Soul.” The hymn text is based on Psalm 46:10 and was written in 1752 by Katharina von Schlegel. The tune is from the beloved classical piece FINLANDIA, composed by Jean Sibelius.

This arrangement is sung by an a cappella boys’ choir from Liberia. The text is provided on the screen so you may follow it as you listen to the beautiful blending of voices. May the peace of the Lord be with you.
