For the Beauty of the Earth, Piano Solo, Op 8

Description

A stirring hymn arrangement that helps the listener more fully appreciate life's beauties. The sacred piano solo begins with simple reflections on the hymn's text,) moves into a gradual exploration of the beauties of those struggles in life that are only appreciated after they are passed. At the darkest point in the piece, the music turns slowly but gloriously to a realization of the greatest of the gifts mercifully given by the “Lord of all”.
